There was noI was really pleasantly surprised. The train arrived on time, I didn't have to change trains and had wifi and peace and quiet throughout. The staff were friendly and came through regularly. The onboard bistro was open and the coffee there was actually quite good. I particularly liked the route, with a great view of the countryside. The price was fair, especially with the saver fare. I arrived relaxed and would take the connection again at any time.
