Riding trains, whether it’s commuting to work or traveling from one city to another, sometimes gets a bad rap. Many find trains to be stuffy, tedious, and boring, and certainly not the most ideal way to travel long distances. But here’s why riding the train can actually provide some wonderful experiences—as long as you’ve got the right attitude.

Productivity

Trains are great for getting things done, plain and simple. If you take the train every day, use that time wisely. Don’t harp on the fact that you have to wait 45 minutes till you reach your destination. Be grateful that you have all that time to get things done uninterrupted. From listening to that important podcast to writing that novel you’ve been dreaming about, this is your opportunity to make it happen.

Reflection

With all of the things we have going on in life, it can be hard to find time to just meditate with our thoughts and just reflect. In fact, sometimes we have so much going on that we forget that we even want (or need) to do something as basic as sitting in silence. But trains offer this luxury.

Sleep

Expanding on the reflection aspect, sometimes we just need to catch up on some heavily-desired sleep. The train can be a great place to grab a few winks before we start our busy day.

Even those who love traveling don’t necessarily love the journey itself. As poetic as it sounds to embrace every moment, sometimes traveling from one city to another is just plain boring. If you’re traveling by train, these trips can sometimes take hours, and it’s probably best that you have something to do. Sure, there are the obvious options such as sleeping or listening to music. But here are some alternate suggestions that we believe will make your train ride not just bearable, but fun!

Audiobooks

If you love reading but don’t feel like carrying around a book while you travel, audiobooks are the answer. Just kick back and allow the narrator to take you on a journey as you enjoy the view outside. The best part? You’ll find the time passing incredibly quickly, and you might even want the ride to continue because you’re so captivated by your audiobook!

Create Something

If you’re an artist of some kind, long train rides are the perfect time to get things done. If you’re an author, songwriter, illustrator, or anything of that sort, this is the perfect time for you to dig deep and create something beautiful with minimal distractions.

Reflections

Traveling in general is a way to take a break from your “real life”. However, train rides allow you the option to take a “break from your break” and reflect on what’s going on in your mind and where you see your life going.
