To a few, and I do mean a very few, favored destinations train travel is more than competitive in price and convenience. UI wouldn't think of driving a car into NY City, I'll park at a train station and for the price of parking in the City I'll be delivered to Downtown Manhattan. However try to travel from Atlanta to New Haven Ct some time, 48-72 Hours at best and three to five times the air fare. At least that's the way it was a few years ago when I was working in Atlanta, and wanted to take a week off to visit my relatives in New England for the Christmas New Years holidays. Hell when I took layovers into account it was faster and cheaper to drive the 970 miles. The train didn't even come close to being competitive.
I agree there's a lack of service. I'm saying it shouldn't be like that. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
