      Fuck yeah trains! Three times the price of driving and takes an hour longer on the rare occasions where it actually turns up on time!

        Speak for yourself, taking a train is way faster than driving for most mid-distance trips I ever take, and the money I save by not owning a car is absolutely massive.

        Luckily, I don’t live in the USA. So that doesn’t apply to me.

        Edit: Luckily, I also don’t live in the UK. :)

        Sure, because in addition to a train ticket price, you have to pay train fuel, train insurance, train maintainance, train devaluation, and when you get to the destination, you have to pay to park the train.
