We travelled from Cologne to Sylt by train. The train arrived on time, but unfortunately had some delays during the journey. Unfortunately, we also had to change trains twice. The trains were in a good, well-kept condition. The sanitary facilities were also clean. The wifi offered and the sockets for charging electrical devices worked perfectly. I found the price a little too expensive.
