I'm British myself, so unfortunately I'm right there with you in the "early adopters of rail that are bad at it now" camp. Trains are absolutely my favourite way to travel if it's an option, but they are slow and prohibitively expensive here. Fortunately most of our bigger cities have decent bus situations or similar alternatives, so before and after the train is alright
