Compare the European rail system to the American highway system. We've been working on our respective national transportation systems for many decades. In America you can drive anywhere you want, when you want, stop where you want along the way, etc.., but you have to pay for all the transportation costs (gas, maintenance, etc.) yourself for every trip you take on an American highway. In Europe you can ride a train that is reliable, cheap transportation, the trains run pretty much on time, and even though they don't stop at every possible tourist trap along the route, they stop in almost every town. Both are good systems, but which one is better is really just a personal choice.
I really don't understand what you mean with this, is the whole point in america you don't pay a toll on higways and trains are more expensive?
because every european country has a highway system in germany is free, in other countries is very cheep like in asutria, in Italy is expensive but highways are very high quality, trains are better in other countries but also more expensive and changing from a long ride train with a local train from the closest city you can stop almost at every small town. But both peronal and pubblic trasportation are granted.
