   @gerry sorry, but that's just not true. Buses are about 2-3x the emissions per person per km as trains.

     @evan I was too late to answer the poll, but slow trains are roughly the same price as buses & roughly take the same amount of time. Buses often have lower GHG emissions than trains (even electric trains!). So I let the price decide (which often depends on how much advance notice you give).

     If price is not a factor, then fast trains are the winner.
