Even for freight, it used to be better. My tiny rural town used to be serviced by a rail line hauling passengers, timber, and agriculture, but it was gone before I was even born. You can still see some of the old tracks if you know where to look.
and what remains is in such a hilariously horrendous state that the rest of the world struggles to comprehend it, lines with 20km/h speed limits and trains passing over the tracks literally visibly wobble from side to side
