Trains still need some pretty massive interchanges, just look at any megabase in Factorio. There are literally books of blueprints to deal with any interchange you could possibly need for your trains.
Rail takes up some space, but only at terminating stations. The tracks themselves for 99% of the journey are much more space efficient than roads. We can't compare factorio to real life aha, we are transporting people instead of cargo and over much larger distances.
Besides, USA has a lot of space, that wasn't really the issue, it was the spending of money on the wrong infrastructure.
We’re very much also transporting cargo, but I don’t know anything about factorio or trains, so I don’t know if that’s a large distinction
