I heard chile has electric lines in use.
Looking at the map on https://efe.cl the overall rail coverage is great, though idk how easy it is to get through various customs.
How is the passenger train network in South America?

Practically non-existent.
Give this map a check. As you can see the two countries with the least worse infrastructure in this regard are Argentina and Brazil; even then it’s mostly around Buenos Aires province and São Paulo state, and it’s mostly cargo. And at least in Brazil it seems to me it’s getting worse over time, as people rely more and more on aeroplanes for long distance travel.
My personal experience fits the above, by the way. I live in Curitiba; it’s in a 4M inhabitants metropolitan region, 1300km from Buenos Aires and 400km from São Paulo. And it’s a rather important connection between Paraguay (600km to the west, if counting from Ciudad del Este) and the port of Paranaguá (100km to the east).
So, note: metropolis, with important N-S and W-E connections, you’d expect it to be a train hub, right? Well… no. If I were to travel to any of those places I mentioned, there’s no reasonable way I’d take a train:
So not even in the conditions you’d expect trains the most you’ll find them. (inb4 metropolitan trains became a political joke here, although it’s for another matter.)
