The bus is a much better travel option anyway. Trying to make travel plans with SNCF is a nightmare with their constant strikes.

  In which world is the bus not a nightmare?! Waiting for it at a random bus parking where nobody knows where it arrives, almost no ability to walk around nor go to the bathroom, less space than train, no access to your big luggage.. I'm not even talking about speed or efficiency.

    Most buses on Europe have gps tracking and updated timetable available online, they are also fairly comfortable.

      Most? Can I see the data? I'm imagining you and I exist in parallel Europes.

          That's not really an answer to my question, but I did my best to dig out the data on this. As far as I can tell, FlixBus indirectly employs ~7,000[0] drivers, which includes train drivers. There are around 692,000[1] buses in circulation in Europe today. So I'm struggling to see how your comment supports the idea that most buses in Europe can be monitored with GPS.
