Considering the two studies which claim that no effect was observed, I believe the original authors observed the effect but they don't fully understand the origin.

The original paper is so naively unprofessional in some places that it is really hard for me to think it is not genuine.

say whaaaat. I wanna see it reproduced, but if true this is huge.

As always depends where you live. I live in Frankfurt am Main and travel to my parents in Poland who live in a 3k village with a train. One change in Berlin, one in Poland in a smaller city to a very local train which takes me to 4km from their home, where they finally do pick me up with a car.

With a car it would take at least 12h (been there, done that when I moved), similar amount of money for gas and I would have to take a day off from work, which I don't have to do on the train, because I work remotely on the way. I can also shit without stopping or eat on the train if I have a fancy. How is this inconvenient?

I made trips to Italy, France, Austria, Romania and ofc Poland with trains. And at least half of them were to not urbanized areas at all (for example France was to Port-en-Royans, population 817 people, when I got off around 5km from destination) and the only inconvenience is that you need some effort with planning.

Wow the original article data analysis is gorgeous. Someone has spent a lot of time on those graphs. Open access apparently, if you click from the article linked in the post.
