That's the difference though. In the US, trains are so expensive that they're almost always more expensive than flights.
Also, comparing to NYC is disingenuous. NYC has by far the best public transport in the US. There's a very significant drop-off in quality (other major cities have poor public transport, and for smaller cities it's nonexistent).
