Trains tend to be largely privatised. I can't speak to other countries but here in the UK, each train company covers different lines so it's effectively a distributed monopoly. They have no incentive to make tickets cheaper or their trains better because there isn't any competition. Trains should be nationalised or at least have more regulations.
I thought as much. The National Rail is a joke.
