>>945742I travelled in one of those new trains only once, from Essen Hbf to Münster Hbf a few months ago. It was a very pleasant ride, but the interior smelled very "new", like plastic and rubber.

Pic related is one of the trains of the RE 70 line which I use at least once a week. It's awesome. Much better than the DB RE 6 which serves part of the same route.
