I tried Amtraking from Austin to Dallas. The train was over four hours late. I ended up driving and reached my destination before the train even arrived in Austin.

Yeah SA to Dallas is 10-11 hours, driving is only about 5 hours. Down here, freight companies own all the tracks and have right of way so Amtrak has to constantly pull over and stop for freight trains to go by.
