It's all relative. The trains in Australia are good compared to say.....hmmmm....am going to have to think about this...suggestions anyone? In the meantime, I'll talk about what I can be sure of.
Chile-they're ok. They do the job, but in a fairly non-spectacular way from what I remember. The Santiago Metro is pretty good though, apart from at peak-hour (being short, I dislike being squashed in small spaces with strangers as I just get a view of everyone's chest and shoulders and can't breathe).
China-trains between cities aren't that salubrious (specially in cattle class and hard sleeper), but they're cheap and they get there in more safety than a Chinese aeroplane + you get to see the scenery.
Japanese trains are definitely great though. No argument with that.
