Urban transit done right is 3, 7, 10. Suburban transit done well is 5, 5, 4. Inter-city transit is 8, 1, 3 by design. And since everything is slow and also MUST carry a ton of people, that requires density (which then let you have lower headways) and short distances.
>1000km even in Japan that's flying (or overnight bus) distance; few people take the bullet train from Tokyo to Fukuoka despite it being possible (it takes about 6 hours, is over 1000km)

lmao I'm a huge train fan, *I* always take the train for that trip, but anyone not motivated by passion would do something more sensible, like fly
