More night trains would be amazing. There's a train that goes to Rome from my city but it's constantly booked for the sleeper beds. More trains would mean more beds are available.

In Asia it's a great way to travel. In Thailand you could order from a few different restaurants and they'd phone your order to the next stop, when the train pulls up you have a hot fresh cooked meal ready to go. The trains don't really follow the schedule there, they run on Thai time, but it was a fun experience and was great to just lie down and sleep.
