This summer I took a DB train from Amsterdam to Berlin. Being from the midwest USA, I didn't have a lot of experience with trains so I bought a first class ticket. The air and power in my car weren't working. There was no beverage car or service so we sat sweating to death. After a couple hours they gave in and told us to go to another car. Then at the next stop someone got on and yelled at me because I was in his assigned seat.

Amsterdam to Berlin is probably cheaper and faster by airplane. Even a car is sometimes faster if you count for delays.

It really should be a three hour train ride but due to incompetence it takes over six hours.

True. But it was my first time in Europe so I wanted the experience. If I go again I will probably fly.
