Come on, that is daily city transport of people going to work and not passengers on longer routes.
But I do admit problem seems to be more complicated than I anticipated.
Nevertheless, monorail magnetic trains shouldn't be so problematic in carrying many wagons since they levitate and therefore don't lose on friction, so SCMaglev can carry 16 wagons (but how much passengers is that, I don't know)
And here's an uplifting video
But it does seem like it is still on experimental level and it is probably very expensive to have that kind of magnetic rail.

But this is Trump's era where "economy is doing better than ever" so there certainly has to be money in the best economy ever for something that important.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
