i've road on a train before to Oregon, from Louisiana, it took me three days it was ok.I've always been to scared to fly on an airplane.A bus I would have had to do alot of switching buses, and was afraid of getting on the wrong bus, I only had to switch one time on the train in Las Angelos.

I think long train journeys are very relaxing. It is enjoyable to watch the scenery pass by. I adore sleeping in a comfortable compartment. Then I can wake up somewhere new a bit nearer my destination. I travelled from Cairns to Brisbane in Australia. That took about 35 hours and I really enjoyed it.
Many countries in the world do not have train lines so in this case I travel by bus. When there is daylight it can be interesting to look out of the window. But it is uncomfortable to sleep the night in a bus seat. The worst place I have travelled by bus was in Sumatra, Indonesia. It was a scary journey. The ticket man was creepy. It didn't feel like my luggage was safe. The driving was quite dangerous.
I don't enjoy flying very much. But I do go to some places by plane. It is a quick and often quite cheap way of getting to far away destinations.
Travelling by car can be a comfortable way to travel. Unlike a train or bus journey it is possible to stop to take photos or enjoy a rest.
So I would say train is the way I prefer to travel.

I don't like traveling any way, so I guess I really can't answer that. Car takes too long, flying scares me, bus forget it, and train I don't think so. I have a friend who has used the train, and he said it was the pitts. I wish they had a super speed something, that you could get where you want to go in minutes.
