Outdated trainNo socketsUncomfortable seatThe train ride from Vienna Airport to Linz was disappointing for me. The train was outdated and the seats extremely uncomfortable. There were no power sockets, but the toilet was surprisingly clean. At least the train arrived on time. Overall, I can only give the trip 2 out of 5 stars, unfortunately. Improved seat quality and more amenities would be desirable for me in the future to increase comfort.
