- em-bee 4y agoleave your home in the evening, arrive in the city where your office is in the morning. i did that a few times when i had to attend in-person meetings in a remote location that was just an over-night train away.

- irrational 4y agoLong ago I had a coworker that would fly to work a few times a week. He lived back east and could make it to the offices in the west coast fairly early in the morning. Of course, this was in the days when the internet was in its infancy and long distance phone calls still cost an arm and a leg.
- thebruce87m 4y agoWe went on holiday to London and got the sleeper back. Get on the train at 9pm, get some sleep. The train arrived in our home city at 5am. One hour before your destination you are woken up with breakfast. The room is small, with bunk beds, but it has an en-suite bathroom including a shower. Note: the train does not go slowly. I imagined a sauntering pace through the countryside, but the thing pelted through.
