Just make trains even vaguely affordable would be a good start.

Two people go on an entire holiday to mainland Europe because it's cheaper than return tickets from London to Edinburgh.

I'm about to drive 220 miles to an airport, get a hotel, pick someone up, then drive 220 miles back. It's cheaper than a train ticket one-way. It's insane.

I was literally looking for something like this the other day

The best I could find was a nearly two grand a month season pass that would only let me go between the two stations I would use most.

Imagine the car you could get on lease, insured, taxed and filled up with petrol for that money

It's completely unbalanced to an embarrassingly ridiculous degree. We need to remove all subsidies being put into car travel and shift it into public transport

Austria has it! It's called the Klimaticket.

It is one good thing that somehow survived 90's chaos - public transport.

One year pass for all ČD trains cost about 900 €/year; most cities have year pass under 200€.
