We have perfectly good electric trains for decades now and they do have wonderfull infotainment in form of an on board restaurant with beer and WiFi for some time now.
If only those trains were reliable and actually affordable? Personally I prefer taking trains but the prices sometimes are ridiculously high, and then the chances that you end up with a huge delay or you miss your connection can be quite high depending on the country you are living in.
Plus not all trains are electrified, there are quite a lot of diesel trains and I think even if they are electrified the losses on transferring electricity over their lines is pretty big. I am not in favour of using a car, just giving you some perspective.
Trains are almost always cheaper than driving.
Most car drivers are just too dumb to calculate the cost of their journey which is more than the fuel they burn

Sounds like you should ride your bike. Faster than the car and good for your health. Where is the problem?

I’ve misread it as a list of different journey times. My bad
