    Just swap the managers of the airlines with he Bahn, and soon there will be cheap connections all across Europe 4 times a day for 20 euros with competing train lines.

      The problem is not the price or lack of service, but the trains being on time, so you do actually make connections. The only way to fix that is to improve infrastructure and that takes time.

        It doens’t take that much time. It takes money, and that money is currently being used to pay the weapon industry so they send guns to kill palestinians.

          That‘s true. Last government (Ampel coalition) gave some money. Visible in some bigger railroad construction sites.

      That’s not how it work at all omg.

      Trains needs tracks, which needs to be publically owned because it doesn’t make sense to have different competing networks per companies.

      That is why we nationalized them in the first place.

      Also trains pay taxes on the electricity they consume. Planes kerosen is untaxed.
