You'll arrive about 10m sooner (11m by train vs 21m by car). Tickets start at around $33 compared to roughly $3 in fuel and tolls — so you're paying a bit more, but getting hours of your day back, a city-centre arrival, and the freedom to work or relax instead of drive.

Driving makes more sense if you're travelling as a group (where fuel costs split several ways), want to stop along the way, or need a car once you arrive.

WIFIThe catering and the staff on the train were very good. I can also only report positive things about the equipment and the seats! The price-performance ratio is also reasonable. It's just a shame that the wifi at my seat wasn't that good at times and made it difficult to watch series.
