I was able to decipher the Soviet-era mosaic in the Bratislava train station when I visited this past June. I took the city express from Vienna to/from Bratislava and found the Slovakian coaches to have electric plugs and A/C and the OBB cars did not. Also, tickets for the same train were considerably cheaper on the Slovakian and Hungarian train websites than booking on the OBB site (we went to both cities from Vienna).
Very impressive , interesting and helpful video ! Huge thanks dear Mark Smith for Your heartening work 🙏 ! Wishing You only happy changes, dazzling and prosperous weekend !

First Class is 99 Euros if booking on the OBB or Trainline websites. 19 Euros (yes, I am not kidding) if booked on the MAV (Hungarian State Railways) website. 59 and 12 Euros in Second Class.
great to see you back on line Mark, and continuing to produce great videos
I have driven from Budapest to Bratislava, two of the most beautiful cities in Europe. Nice train ride, thanks for sharing it with us 👍

Glad to see you back on track. I was beginning to worry.
A wonderful report -- many thanks!

Great trip

Holy truth dear Rachid ! Thanks for Your wise words !
Good lunch!
Amazing.
I did this trip when I was going to Budapest for the F1
...I still remember the time, the first class coach used to be quiet...
Is it possible to see the menu online
How much is the fare?

The passenger car is good
I'd rather travel in 2nd class compartment than that open plan first class carriage.
