How do you get anyplace? I doubt you'd do much walking in winter, especially after a huge snowstorm. And Public transportation sucks, you always end up next to annoying people, or have a kid kicking your chair, or someone left a piece of gum on your seat. And buses only travel around the city. How are you supposed to get out of town?Rochey wrote:I hardly ever drive, myself. I just walk or take public transport.
There're no snowstorms over here. The worst we get is a load of ice all over the place.I doubt you'd do much walking in winter, especially after a huge snowstorm.
Never had much trouble with it, myself. Asside from the ancient buses, public transport over here is pretty good.. And Public transportation sucks, you always end up next to annoying people, or have a kid kicking your chair, or someone left a piece of gum on your seat.
Well;And buses only travel around the city. How are you supposed to get out of town?
Well, the LUAS Line works brilliantly over here. It goes all over the city, and has stops at every major place you'd want to go. Plus, it takes you right outside the city's main train station, which is great.I suppose trams could work in places it doesn't snow.
1) Monopoly kick ass, and always will.And I thought passenger trains were outdated, like snail mail and Board games.
That sort of stuff is always over-exagerated, if they're late then it's only by a few minutes. Also, the large amount of trains means that, at worst, if you miss a train you'd only need to wait ten minutes or so to get the next one.And I've heard that in the few places they exist they're never on time.
In a way, yes. They can go at high speeds, and go along pre-planned routes, like planes. However, they're massively cheaper to get a ticket for and are far more reliable, from what I've heard. They may be slower, but if speed is a problem then take a plane. Otherwise, just sit back and relax, and bring a good book or a game.I always thout trains are like airplanes but cheaper to operate(assuming you can get the engine to work) and slower.
Yeah, I said thatMikey wrote:As far as sporting events and concerts, don't forget that Madison Square Garden - home of the NY Rangers and NY Knicks as well as huge concert events - is basically at a huge train station.
Madison Square Garden is located directly atop Penn station, so there are zillions of mass transit options there.
