This is a follow up to Sandra Folzer’s article in the May issue about the superiority of trains. I highly recommend the website seat61.com, which discusses travel by train, bus, and ferry all over the world. 

(Editor’s Note: Mark Smith, “the man in seat 61,” administers the site. He’s a former manager for British Rail who seeks to promote alternatives to traveling by plane by sharing schedules, fares and other information.)
