Ministers agree to reduce Orient/East-Med freight delays

The longer a train runs, the more possibility of delay the train has. So, international trains are more likely to be delayed.
That's why Japan has a lot of urban rails on the former long distance rail lines.
Japan's long distance train was altered by Shinkansen(High Speed Rail) and there is no international rail lines.
