They're more capable in some ways. They can go a lot faster than cars, and they allow passengers to engage in a much wider range of activities while riding one.

- rickydroll 3y agoIt's possible for a train to go faster than cars but it's not guaranteed. for example, one of the most heavily traveled corridors is Boston to New York City travel times are: Driving: 3 hours: 51 minutes (plus pee breaks) Amtrak: 3 hours 55 minutes Boston to DC you have much better tracks on the NYC to DC segment driving: 8 hours (plus pee breaks) Amtrak: 6 hours 45 minutes as for a wider range of activities, only if you don't get motion sick. When I'm on a train, my only activity is staring out the window (and taking pee breaks)
