- Baggage allowance is usually not something you need to think about when you take a train. You really can take almost as much luggage as you like on a train provided of course that you have not taken up the whole train with your bags.

 

- Flight fares are always changing and it can be hard to budget for this type of trip; at some times of the year flights can be exorbitantly expensive to many destinations. Train travel fares are a lot more stable than flight fares and they tend to be a lot cheaper as well.

 

- Travelling by train gives you a lot more room to move about. Stretching your legs is much easier to do on a train.

 

- You can take in a lot of the surrounding areas on a train. Many train lines actually pass through beautiful scenery and even if you are not actually visiting the country you are passing through, you get to feel as though you have visited it. The only thing you get to look at on a plane is the blue sky above the clouds and all from a tiny little window.

 

- You get much more room on a train. Unless you travel first class by air it can feel like you are squeezed in like a sardine. On some trains you can even book a sleeper cabin and really enjoy a night’s sleep.

 

- Most airports are located away from the city but trains usually have the benefit of being able to pull up at stations right in the heart of the city.
