I wish it was like that here in the Netherlands. Instead we get flights that stay more or less the same price due to heavy subsidies and constant bickering about the trains. They’ve already announced another 10% price hike on trains for the coming year, after already raising it by 5-10% every single year for the past few years. It’s insane. Add to that the extra inconvenience of having to cross borders with mediocre connections and I can understand that people don’t take the train.
