    I don’t care for train food or luxury. I just want to be able to take a train from any major city in the EU to another at a reasonable price.

    Ideally even without checking a schedule, because they come so regularly. But that goes more for regional trains.

      at a reasonable price

      Why is it so fucking expensive? Often flying is cheaper. In what a fucked up world do we live in?

        Airline companies are heavily subsidized, while trains are not. We should really do the opposite.

          The CEO of the biggest train company in Sweden stated that “the price is part of the experience”, when asked about the high prices. So that too, I guess.
