I don’t know what’s relaxing about a slow commute, unless the trip is getting in a train. Perhaps I come from a place where the train is a utility and not something “weird” one fetishizes as a vacation. I don’t mean this in any negative way whatsoever and I don’t intend this to sound like I’m gate keeping train usage (but I know it may sound like I that).

All this to say, I want to get on the train to get somewhere, not to “experience the train”. Until the train operates as such, regular passengers are not going to choose it.
