I don’t think being a Nazi is strictly a requirement for having good train service. We should aim for non-Nazi good trains.

That quote was as often a quote of Weimar Germany.
Nazi Germany tended to appoint all kinds of idiots to everything and all the most competent people had all their time wasted in “loyalty parties”. Eventually even the trains stopped running on time by the end.
