Opinion & Answer Part VI: Short & Long Distance Trains 





Long Distance Passenger Trains 


Long distance passenger trains go between cities or within a region of a country. These are the trains that have a diner and sleeper cars that are attached to the train for the long journey between cities. These are the trains that commonly have the theme of comfort as passengers usually relax while on the long journey between two places. Long distance trains seem to sometimes have delays when it comes to arriving at some stations  but commonly have a goal to keep on time with their timetable where delays occur while traveling. 



Short Distance Passenger Trains 


Short Distance Passenger trains are also known as "Commuter" and/or "Suburban" trains. 

Short Distance passenger trains basically serve a city and surrounding suburbs and are majority demanded with the cities.  These trains basically conduct their journey from a 1 minute to about 45 minutes  between the next station (1 minute) to about 45 minutes between cities and suburban areas.
