The big difference is of course that you can electrify trains, as has happened in much of Europe and Asia, but not for most of Amtrak

        Conrail was taken over by the US government to be privatized as quickly as possible. That is really not the kind of nationalization you want for a railway. It is basically just government support for the private sector.
