    A ticket for the ~275 km journey from Seattle to Portland tonight is $71, or ~5.5x this price. If you plan ahead, it’s like $27, or ~2x this price. Surely US trains aren’t cheaper than UK trains?

        Imma keep it 100 with you, chief: I’m not smart enough to understand what you meant by posting a screenshot of bus prices underneath my question about the relative train prices between the US and UK.

            Ah, I see. I thought we were talking about the relative price of 250 km train tickets between countries and struggled to figure out how your screenshot fit. Thanks for clarifying.

              Yes friend how much does it cost to do x. Warsaw and Chelm are in Poland. You compared that to travel from Seattle to Portland. Neither is international travel. Why on earth are you fucking with me?

                Your reading comprehension is the problem here, nobody but yourself is fucking with you, so I propose you calm down a bit before continuing to make an ass out of yourself.

                Combat Wombat meant comparing between countries the train prices of a 250 km ride inside those countries and not comparing the prices of a 250 km ride over country borders.

                And even in the beginning the question wasn’t comparing different modes of transportation but directly train prices.
