Mainland Europe maybe but certainly not in the UK. Train's often cost double what it would cost to drive the same distance, even at current fuel prices (and that's booking a ticket well in advance) The national coach service is a joke with a pitiful amount of coaches per day and only large towns and cities have bus services that actually run often enough to be of any use :mad2:

The reason the price of gas is lower in the US is because of its superior market economics.
