A comment on The Difference Between European and American Butter. Parent comment
Overcrowded busses and trains are pretty strong indicator they’re doing something right.
In the US a “frequent” train service is every hour. In Europe a frequent train service is every 20min. In a major EU city, it’s every 90 seconds.
The US isn’t just an extreme, it’s an entirely different, almost incomparable, ballgame.
