In Australia this could potentially be viable between Melbourne and Sydney, but probably only if it doubles as a cargo train. I doubt there is enough daily people traffic to warrant it otherwise?
It is around 900km though, almost a straight line along the Hume highway and the busiest city-pair in Australia by a long way.
