I am skeptical of rail transit in all but the largest cities since busses can do the job much more cost effectively. They also respond to increases or decreases in demand much more quickly. With hybrid busses and even electric ones, I think they make the best solution for most cities up to the large metro areas.
Interregional high speed rail makes sense. They are precisely what carries water for local and slower regional mass transit since they tend to be profitable even when taking capital costs into account.
