Creator's Key Takeaways
definitely was providing a service that was both more efficient and endlessly more comfortable than my recent Eurostar and nightjet trains
first class which I traveled in is a 10e search charge which I'd say is well worth it
this was near a Japanese level of respect by all passengers to speak softly and just enjoy the ride in peace
I'm thankful to railjet for ensuring that I left Europe on a high note when it comes to trains
