Train no-brainers

    • When did you last hear someone mention a
      traffic jam on a train?
    • When the train goes very fast, you don't
      get a speeding fine.
    • Dozing off will not endanger the lives of
      you or your fellow passengers.
    • You don't have to turn the map upside down.
      In fact, you don't need a map at all.
    • You can stretch your legs. (Without accidentally
      braking, accelerating.)
    • There's nothing to declare when you leave
      (except your love for train travel).
    • If your luggage doesn't make it on board,
      you've only yourself to blame.
    • The view is rarely obstructed by cloud.
    • Keeping your shoes on doesn't make your
      feet swell up.
    • It's quicker, cheaper, more direct, and
      less hassle than any other way.
