    There actually was a transportation agency that had an ad campaign oriented around this idea. Basically people in the cars saw the train going by so fast and felt jealous because they were stuck in their cars.

    Anyone remember what agency put this on?

      I have no idea, but I remember a great ad DB brought out: A picture of cars bumper to bumper in a traffic jam, under it “Bumper to bumper is definitely the right approach. Now safely accelerate to 300km/h”.
