PickVidsWhy Trains are so Expensive
推荐理由
There's a good video that breaks down the costs that make up your train ticket
说明
这是2017年由Wendover Productions发布的一部讲解，主题归在Transit, cities & urban planning。它讲的是passenger rail economics这一支里的具体问题，而不是把整个领域扫一遍。适合按兴趣直接看、不打算先补课的人。内容上可以概括成：A Wendover Productions explainer on why train tickets, especially Amtrak in the US, cost so much compared with flying. It breaks down staffing, speed and the cost components behind a ticket.这些读者给出的理由，核心是：HN links it in rail-versus-air threads as a clear cost breakdown of American passenger rail.讲法不绑某一条新闻，过几年仍然可以当材料看。从2017年到2022年，有5位不同的读者在4个不同月份把它推荐出来，其中明确叫别人去看的有0次。适合用一集把一个概念补上的人。抓住它用的那个图像或类比，比背公式重要。如果已经会了基本定义，就把注意力放在它怎么把passenger rail economics变成能跟着复述的例子。
