I find the Freiburg - Titisee stuff very comfy. The curve of the sides
upstairs takes a little getting used to, but that's all.


Since 2000 lots of new DD stock has been introduced. Most of it is now
airconditioned and has newer, much better seats. Some are now capable of
160 km/h and can sometimes be recognised in the timetable by "RE160".
