I travelled to Vienna to see my relatives. The train journey was very pleasant and there were no problems. I paid €49.90 for the ticket, which is a comparatively high price, but I arrived at my destination very quickly. There were plenty of toilets on the train and they were very clean. The train was a little late, but that wasn't too bad as it was only 10 minutes.
