I am an American. I love trains. Taking the train is 1000x times more enjoyable than driving for me, even if it takes longer (within reason). Seriously, I think time spent driving is almost completely wasted. Train rides can be spent doing whatever the hell I want, including eating Captain Crunch while reading Kurt Vonnegut (my favorite pastime). Yes, before you start, I can also do this while driving; but I promise you--its much less enjoyable.

> Train rides can be spent doing whatever the hell I want This is the best part of it for me. I spend > 7 hours a week on trains and read so, so many books. People always wonder why I can read so much, and it's because I can ride a train instead of driving.
