Perhaps we need to slow down a bit, in general?
- afavour 3y agoIf the rail isn’t faster than the car then it won’t ever see wide scale adoption. It’s not even remotely difficult to clear this bar when the political will exists. Why slow down when there’s no actual need to?
- systemtest 3y agoA car can go faster from Amsterdam to Berlin than the train, yet I still see people on the train.
- psd1 3y agoI've paid more to take longer by train, for greater convenience and comfort. I agree with your point in general, I'm just quibbling that speed is the decider.
