I think I like train the best. Not as much of a wait to board as an airplane but still a fairly fast way to travel where you can enjoy the scenery. Although most of the time I drive or take a plane because it is usually cheaper than the cost of gas and lodging and less pay from work on the way to somewhere.

I prefer traveling by car, because this mode of transportation gives me more control over the situation.

I have never used trains as a form of transportation.  Sounds fun though.  Flying is ok but I'm a little scared for some reason.

I prefer airplane, only because I travel a lot and it is SO MUCH FASTER than driving.

I like all 3. Flying on a plane is my favorite way to travel, but I also love to take a slow train ride, or a long bus ride on a coach bus somewhere, especially on a school trip of some kind. Those were good times

Airplanes are the best option, in my experience. But if it's a reasonably short trip I'll go by bus because it's MUCH less expensive and not all that much of an inconvenience, it just tends to be not as clean cut.

I've never traveled by train! I know some friends of mine went on a train up the East Coast that broke down and turned into a total nightmare for them.. got home two days after they were supposed to... and that's been enough to keep me away from train travel, I suppose!

I dislike riding buses. I don't mind using the bus if it's just somewhere in my town or county, but for travel it's not as nice as a train or an airplane. Besides, you get food on an airplane or a train. :p

I want to go to Alaska and ride the train there. It was pretty when we went but there are places you can't drive too that the train goes. And yu sure can't see much from the plain. Really the drive on the alcan highway and then the train. That is my ideal trip. Have been on a cruise there  Oh well maybe next year.

I used to like to fly, but with all the hassle with security and charging for luggage and making sure you handle certain items properly, it is just no fun or enjoyable any more.
And if your flight is short, then it is better to drive.
