Germany has a very dense railway network though still, and the reason for that goes back to the Kaiserreich. Most of the rails do too, probably, haha.

I was walking in a small city in in Central Victoria, Australia.
I walked past a rail crossing where there was a sign mounted on a post made out of old rail (it was common to reuse old rail for such things last century). The rail had the maker's name forged on it - Krupp!
Here's the history.
