These data, and your broader argument seem to ignore that rail travel can be relatively easily converted to renewable energy, while flying (so far) cannot. Aviation alone would consume 25% of our 2050 carbon budget.

It can locally, but not economically in a huge country like the US. Electrified rail is a lot more maintinence.

For long distance travel were going to be using fossil fuel for a long time, at least until batteries double or so in density.
