Unless you live in a densely populated area and the trains are packed to the max during commute hours … not too uncommon having to stand, unfortunately :(
Yeah, lucked out there unfortunately, even a car is the better option it seems.
For years I had the luxury of train + subway to work, it was bliss because the train was the long part of the commute and it was quite good, and the subway was crowded but fairly short and very frequent.
Long urban bus routes suck in general, especially if there are no dedicated bus lanes.
Another point is that they mentioned motorbike.
Presumably, if done by car the trip would take much longer due to traffic, and be a lot more expensive because of gas+tolls.
Also, come winter, a nearly 2h drive in piss poor weather is a miserable experience.
On a train, you can sleep all that time!

even when standing, my noise cancelling headphones and my steam deck are helping me to blend out the insanity of society lol
The same route by car takes between 10 and 30 minutes longer, depending on traffic, it’s a road where overtakes can be difficult in a car.
The train trip can be fairly comfortable, the bus part is… Bad.
