You'll arrive about 1h 4m sooner (4h 2m by train vs 5h 6m by car). Tickets start at around $139 compared to roughly $87 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.
