Flixtrains sound like a good idea but the interiors of the trains are horrible, probably so that they can fit in an extra four seats. And there are not enough opening windows, which means the passengers get baked in hot weather. Buying tickets is a pain. You used to be able to turn up at a station 20 minutes before departure, buy a ticket and go. There is also the lovely practice where you can sit down on an empty seat and after a while, someone comes along, says they have reserved it and you get turfed out.
