In Great Britain, the rail subsidy per passenger mile was 4 pence. The subsidy per passenger journey was £1.08.

In the US it is 16.3 cents per passenger mile. that is almost four timees as much depending on curreny exchange rate fluctuations.

Rail travel is almost 3 times as expensive as buses, over twice as expensive as planes and almost twice as expensive as cars per passenger mile. We have a large country and rail is not efficient.
