I did some research on that graphic. The image originates from this article: https://www.datapulse.de/en/nuclear-energy/. It has a pro nuclear power tone: „The discussion for or against nuclear energy is likely far from over even after shutting down German reactors domestically.“ This is rhetoric from the CDU, FDP or AfD, even though no energy provider agrees with this. Also the article doesn‘t mention the problem of nuclear waste disposal, which for Germany is not due to be solved until 2046.

Digging around in Data Pulse affiliation I couldn‘t find much. May be someone else can find more on this. The CEO Nicolas Caramella has founded Data Pulse in 2023 with only prior experience in different marketing / SEO positions: https://de.linkedin.com/in/nicocaramella

Can we please always link to the original data?

They are still more expensive than planes and there are fewer connections available, often not everyday of the week or only during certain times of year. But my biggest issue is that train companies don’t work together internationally so that there are no “official” connecting trains. You basically need to book them separately and if one is late you are screwed…

Don’t get me wrong, I like night trains and I use them, but there is still a long way to go to make them competitive against planes.
