TRAIN OR BUS WITH "TRAIN INTERIORS"? A COMPARISON

TAAG ELLER BUSS MED "TAAGINREDNING"?: EN JAEMFOERELSE I BLEKINGE MELLAN TAAG (KUSTPILEN) OCH RYMLIGA BUSSAR (KUSTBUSSAR)

The project assesses the passenger values for bus as compared to train riding and the costs for the traffic when several standard factors have been neutralised. The "Coast Buses" in Blekinge (in Southern Sweden) and the "Coast Train" have the same timetable, and the buses stop only at the railway stations. The buses are about as spacious inside as 2nd class trains. (A)
