- ssl232 4y agoThe difference is ultimately money. A while ago (early 90s?) Switzerland voted to spend lots of money on the railway network to make it work the way it does. It was discussed on HN before. The video you linked notes single tickets are expensive and most commuters get half price or free travel paid by their employers. It's still a marvel, and I'd love to have the Swiss train network in my country even if it costs the same, but definitely worth pointing out when comparing to countries who don't have the political will to spend more on their railways.
