The defective air conditionerThis train journey was not very great. The air conditioning didn't work, neither did the wifi or the power sockets. The service was half good, as the ticket inspectors were not very friendly with the passengers. The train was clean and the journey ran on time according to plan. The prices were very good. I myself did not have to buy a ticket as I have a monthly pass. However, my friends had to get one and got it at a good price.
