Trains faster than trams?

[bubble sunglasses]

 If you live equidistant from a train and tram stop, and are going somewhere easily accessible by both [ie: Fed Sqr], how much sooner [if at all] would the train get you there?

It's hard to gage, because it depends on the specific tram route, but trains basically take ~2 minutes per station. So for example, five train stations take about 10-12 minutes. (But add extra time for the lateness of the train)

The best site to use would be http://viclink.com.au, because it calculates the best route for you.

Trains are faster.

For where you're, train.

Trams are bound by speed limits and traffic. Trains travel at around ~70km/h and only stop at stations. The drawback is you lose the distance between the train and the tram stop before Fed. Square (ie, platform and concourse).

The viclink site is a good one to use to plan.
