A new high-speed train service linking Paris and Berlin was launched on Monday – just in time for the Christmas travel season. Joint operators SNCF and Deutsche Bahn say they hope passengers will see it as a “greener” alternative to flying.

Not sure if that helps poor people. I make a solid amount of money and am very flexible, as I can work just as well in the train as I could in the office. An assambly line worker surely cannot do that and likely has to travel on weekends when the prices are high (potentially higher than before).
Students, young people in general, part-time workers, unemployed, underemployed, I don’t have the statistics and obviously it depends on the country but these days there are a ton of people who have more time than money. Again, I am one of them.
Yeah sure there are some, but most poor people will not profit.
