Advantages
Strong wifi and tidy on the trainDisadvantages
NoneThe train connection impressed me with its punctuality, which is particularly important for business travellers. The price was reasonable, but accessibility could be improved. Cleanliness and wifi were top, but some sockets fell out, which was annoying. The toilet facilities were well maintained, but a little more space in the seating area would have been desirable. Overall, a solid option, with a little room for improvement.
