I live in northern Virginia and we have the Virginia railway express which is a commuter rail for northern Virginia to Washington DC. I've taken it a few times.Attached File  tn_us-vre-train-keolis_01 (1).jpg   504.71KB   0 downloads

Also the Washington Metro rapid transit which also serves the DC, Maryland, and Virginia area. I make regular trips on these to get to around the area.

Also, local high-speed rail. Haven't take this yet but I want to. About twenty of these run between DC and Boston daily, with stops in New York and Philadelphia.Attached File  AcelaExpress.jpg   512.22KB   0 downloads

Here in Greece we don't have the best railway system, actually I think it's one of the worst in Europe if you consider countries like Italy, UK, France etc. Most trains now have Air-con which is great....

 

Anyway here's a pic of Athens' "intercity" train that ends up in the airport.

And here are two of the most iconic trains in the greek railway system are being used in the Athens-Thessaloniki route. I've never travelled with them since you can take a flight from ATH to SKG that lasts 30-45 minutes with an A320, plus the train takes around 5 hours.

Auckland Transport, probably (modestly) one of the best public transportation systems in Asia-Pacific
