    “Competition will improve things” yeah sure.

    Mass rail transportation as a public utility at an affordable price for everyone is never going to be a profitable operation. Competition in such a setting won’t improve anything.
    They’ll just invest to run things at a loss while maintaining the same quality for a few years, get their share of the market and run the historical company in the ground, then increase prices and lower quality.
