The Big Question: Trains Vs Buses

Yesterday we had one of the most memorable Off Topics that I can remember. I asked you guys to talk about your experiences with public transport and it seemed to touch a nerve! I thought I’d continue the discussion on The Big Question with — as is customary — a question! Which do you prefer: buses or trains?

As I mentioned yesterday I’ve recently moved house. Now I get a bus into the city instead of a train. Before I would have sworn down dead that trains were the superior mode of transport, but now that I’m in the routine of catching a bus everyday I’m not so sure.

And it’s not because buses are more efficient. They’re not. It’s not because they’re more convenient. They’re not.

It’s because bus people just seem so much nicer. They wait in queues, they don’t put they’re bags on seats. It’s almost as if being on a bus inspires goodness in people. Weird.

What are your thoughts?
