When traveling medium distances, some people prefer to fly. Others prefer to take express trains. Which do you prefer?
In my opinion, I prefer taking express trains over flights to cover a
medium distance, mostly because I think that travelling by plane is expensive
and should be reserved for travel very long distances considering it costs, so
in the following paragraphs I will detail several reasons regarding why you would
prefer taking trains over flights.
First of all, Trains have the great advantage of being less expensive
that planes, and also most trains stations have a system where you pay just for
the distance you traveled from station to another station, this means that
whether you travelled just some couple of meters or a lot of kilometers, you
are charged a fair fare.
Secondly, Baggage is something that could be either problematic or
simple to handle depending on the transport you are using, Trains also have the
advantage of letting you carry as much luggage as you can, on the other hand,
flights charge you for luggage exceeding a certain weight, that doesn’t happen
with luggage being carried on trains, that’s a pretty good reason to take
trains.
Last but not least, Trains have the ultimate advantage of being friendly
to the environment, new technologies developed over the last decades uses new
ways to move trains apart from rails, magnetic tracks can move trains by
magnetism, this impacts little to none to the atmosphere, and since it
transports a lot of people in the same travel, it enhances the efficiency of
energy used compared to cars or other ground transportation systems, Even though
planes are also enhancing their efficiency , trains are better taking into
account cost-effective energy use.
To sum up, Trains have a lot of advantages such as being inexpensive and
friendly to the environment, and have a good energy efficiency, while planes
though being still a good option, trains excels at luggage capacity and costs
for each travel, all things considered, I would recommend without no doubt
travelling by train for each of the several points aforementioned.
