>>1992316Yes planes make sense for coast to coast travel in America. But that's not the majority of air traffic in the US. Anything under 10 - 12 hour train travel is comfier on a train. If it's shorter than ~3 hours on a train you're getting from city center to city center faster than on a plane in most cases. On longer trips night trains are mega comfy way to travel. Hop on a train, sleep a full night in a proper bed, wake up in your destination next morning. And all that without having to get to the airport early so you can queue into getting molested and then wait for your plane, only to land way off from where you most likely want to go to.
