RE: Journey by Train: Overnight to Andorra

in Train Spottinglast year

Yeah train travel is quite nice in general. It feel like there's more room than a plane and more freedom to stand or walk - at least a little. The couchette was tiny but it was okay since it was just for night and for sleeping or reading. It was a neat experience. Not luxurious by any means but worth it in the end

Sort:  

I always drove/flew to NYC from Washington DC... until I took a train. Imagine my surprise when the fare was cheaper thN the tolls- plus no traffic or parking!!

What a deal!!

Trains rule! ( in some cases)

That's awesome that it was actually cheaper as well. We found the trains in France to be hit or miss in that department. Often the train was much more expensive than driving and sometimes it didn't even save any time, which was very surprising. We didn't take many trains for both of those reasons. It was nice the few times it did though.
