Re: Why I don't use the train

Steep prices!

In Finland a 6h train trip (Helsinki-Oulu, south to north, one way) in 2nd class on the fastest trains are ~80e or ~110e in business class.

If you don't travel long distance, that 80e is enough to cover 30 days of trains/bus/metro usage around the capital and its surrounding suburbs (~40mins into all directions). Student price is 30-40e. Single tickets cost between 2.2e to 3.6e.
