Advantages
IconFast and friendly ticket control
IconVery good cleanliness on the train and in the toilets
IconTrain was not delayed
Disadvantages
IconEquipment deficient
The journey had been quite relaxing as there had not been a high occupancy rate and it was therefore very quiet in the passenger compartment. The ticket check was quick and friendly and good announcements were made. The equipment point had been very poor. Power sockets did not work and the internet connection was constantly interrupted. The cleanliness on the train, on the other hand, was great, as were the toilets. The train had not been delayed and it had been quite a relaxing journey despite the lack of facilities.
