Cleanliness railway station, AachenDefective liftI travelled from Cologne to Aachen on business to attend my business meeting there and then take a stroll through the beautiful city of Aachen. I boarded the train in Cologne Deutz and was at Aachen Central Station in about 45 minutes. The train arrived on time and the journey was quiet and pleasant. On the way, I used my laptop to work on a letter I was writing. The wifi was excellent. Unfortunately, when I got off the train at Aachen Central Station, the lift from the platform was broken. Otherwise, it was a very pleasant journey and I would take the train again at any time

DurationThe journey actually started very well, as the train was on time and I got a seat with a table, but unfortunately it had to stop for a while in the middle of the journey due to a technical problem and so the journey took quite a long time. But luckily there were power sockets and working wifi, so I was able to pass the time by watching films. All in all, a reasonably good journey.
