Most of my country doesn't have trains. The only train on time goes to the airport, yes THE airport. Everything else is buss for train. And I purposely didn't mention the country but everyone from here knows it when they read buss for train.
Me When My metro train (Santiago) doesn't immediately arrive as soon as i touch the platform.
As an American living in a region with halfway decent (by American standards) public transit, I feel like I hear more comments aligned with the European side than the American side. If public transit has literally any downsides, that's justification enough to drive for so many people.

no fast railways in the US at all, hyperloop delayed cali long enough til trump was able to stop it in his first term. it would solve alot of employment locaitons issues like biotech, and tech hubs. which are situated outside of major freeways and highways and major metro areas, even cars have a trouble navigating to.
So that's what a train looks like
I am here to represent the germans. The country where the only thing we agree about is, how fucking shit our trains are

Where is this magical European place with trains that are only .5sec delayed? Our public transit authority considers train "on time" if they're no more than 20min late...and still, less than 80% of trains are "on time"...

It's funny, but after traveling around Europe, I've learned one important lesson: avoid booking flights with short layovers! If the transfer time is less than 3-4 hours, you’re playing a risky game. Delays happen more often than you'd think, and in some cases, flights get pushed to the next day due to 'bad weather' (or other mysterious reasons). Better to have a buffer than to get stuck at the airport overnight!
You haven't seen Croatian rail then ;)
