... huh. Very different experiences!
I did notice there was more of a fuss and bustle at trains in the EU, but I thought that might have just been happenstance. I guess it's a regular thing!

(I love it when you're online and talking, Chrizine. I get so much more done in terms of doughnuts! How are you coming with your goal?)

Super interesting travel talk!
I love trains, I travel by them pretty much all the time. I can sit and get work done so long as I don't make the mistake of travelling at rush hour, my train to home and to London is usually fairly okay. And I love watching people. Our trains recently got wifi enabled so now I can also watch videos and listen to podcasts on the train without having to download them first, so I've been doing extra studying :D
On the other hand, I get travel sick in cars and I get worried sick about dying in planes haha. It never gets any better, no matter how many planes I go on. And if I look at a screen either on a plane or a car, my travel sickness gets much worse and I end up with a migraine to boot.
So trains win for me :D Although our train fares are going up AGAIN in January... no idea how many years in a row this is now. When we moved to this house only a couple of years ago my journeys were £2 cheaper. Hate to think how much more expensive it will be now. Especially if I'm travelling every day, that's really adding up to a lot.

My local commuting trains are like that too, completely fine when you don't happen to get into the worst rush hour. When you do it's a nightmare though :D
I actually like the train ride in the morning, I can have a relaxed breakfast and read some news or a book, or crochet, play a bit on my 3ds... Whatever I feel like.
I find cars the least pleasant for long journeys, I can't read in them either or I'll get sick. And you can't stand up and stretch your legs in between when you feel like it...
I have no problem with screens or reading on planes though. Funny how different that is for you!

I'm fairly lucky in ours because normally my home stop and my get-on-to-come-home stop are both right towards the beginning of the train's journey, so I always get a seat. It just means not being able to spread out. And I normally feel super guilty because I almost always carry so much stuff that I need an extra seat for my bags XD

You are making me think that perhaps my love of train travel is only holding up because I've never done it during peak travel times.....
