Comment on Map Shows Where 220mph Trains Would Go in the U.S.parent

I'd take the 5 hours of moderate discomfort, because I only get 2-3 weeks of vacation, and I'd rather not burn basically 2-4 days of my vacation on transit. Not only that, but the plane is likely also much cheaper, and I'm not going to spend hundreds of dollars on greater comfort for a few hours.

Your day isn't any less shot with 8 hours in the airport and on a plane than with 14 hours on a train.

It absolutely is. It's 6 hours less shot to be exact.
