minus-squarejkrtn@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·3 months agoYeah, here we go. Trains are so much more pleasant. If they weren’t 10 times as slow I would never fly.
minus-squareaeharding@vger.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·3 months agoTo me at least the speed isn’t a problem. I’d much rather take a 2 day Amtrak (in sleeper) than an 8 hour plane. The problem is the pricing, and also how much it fluctuates due to the extremely low capacity (one train a day…)
