A pair of psychologists and an economist at the University of Turku, in Finland, have found that because the average electric vehicle (EV) owner is wealthier than the average person, they still have a bigger than average carbon footprint.
Maybe EVs are not a comprehensive climate solution??
By this logic, if a rich dude makes a public railway system then it’s doesn’t matter that the trains are more environmentally efficient, that person is rich so it invalidates everything else
Is the railway system for his personal use? Rail is good if it’s public transport (and cargo). There was a tradition, some time ago, of rich people getting their own railways and trains. But now they have jets and yachts.

Cars are luxuries. Electric cars are more expensive luxuries.
