“ For trips of that distance train will never make sense, flying is too much faster."
I think you are making a common mistake of being too focused on speed - what really matters in convenience. I would like to go London -> Prague but there are like 4 changes. That’s too complicated.
If I could rent a coupe with friends and play poker, that’s a different experience than jumping between trains and platforms for an entire day with heavy bags.
There are advantages to trains - you can bring large and heavy luggage, lithium ion batteries, food service, etc.
