Anyway, most people I know who fly along the NEC do it because it costs less, not due to speed or comfort. HSR isn't going to change that equation.I have to agree. What would work for the NEC versus planes is: -add more trains (locals on the half hour with alternating for the less important stops, and expresses hourly) -keep the prices on the low end of their current rates Or if they really want to sell out trains, use $CHINABUS_RATE * 2 (local) or * 4 (express) for deciding fares. There is no reason for planes *or* buses to have market share over the NEC. |
