Hi,

are people not already looking into trains when they travel? When I lived somewhere with better long-distance train connections, I looked into trains for any trip that wasn't long-haul anyway, because they make the trip much more comfortable.

W/o wearing any hats, I'd like to push back a bit on having the secretariat become a travel agency. I think having them "describe potential train journeys" is asking for a bit much. They're already providing much more information then I see most other meeting organizers provide.

Thanks,
Lars
