Pros: prefer train travel Cons: nothing i can think of unless you want to become like European railways... Tips: be aware in business class that you have free beverages, I did not know that, must have missed the fine print! regarding the WiFi question below, I don't know because I didn't try it. I did like the face I could charge my phone which was running low, thanks
