    Flying OneWorld around Europe [credit to QF]

    In the comparison include time and cost to get to/from airport from your accommodation. In some locations you may find accommodation near the airport or train station. 6hrs in a train [seated] far more tolerable than 3hrs in an aircraft [economy] seat.

    High Speed Rail in Australia

    Long tunnels are tremendously expensive, compared to surface. And then more $$$. (Ask Snowy Hydro) No-one wants a high speed train over their back (or front) fence. A surface train would need a lot of properties to compulsorily purchased and demolished (a big voter looser) Sydney to Canberra...
