An idling gas engine may be annoyingly loud, but that’s the price you pay for having WAY less torque available at a standstill.

That would become a 15+ hour trip then…
Edit: On further investigation, it’s also not significantly cheaper than flying, and is much more expensive than fuel for driving.
But much better for the environment, sometimes others matter more and when more people use rail it’s more likely our country will catch up and build hyper train networks.
Sadly, yes. I live in Germany, and here you need a BahnCard50 (or better) for the train to be cheaper than the gas for driving.
