Germany is the same but without the bullet trains and the robots wiping your ass.

we have plenty of bullet trains - 367 last I checked, plus bullet trains from other countries - they're just chronically late because of car-focused policies over the last decades causing the infrastructure to basically rot away.

still no ass-wiping robots though, maybe one day...

yeah we have a bunch of ICEs, but no transrapid for us. japan has a bunch of maglev trains.

Japan has one maglev line under construction with a completion date set for 2045.
