Why do they dislike trains?

A aquaintance from Queensland yesterday said "Public transporation is seen as a negative one even in urban areas. If you commute somewhere by that, surroundings will look down on you. That's because you cannot seemingly afford to buy a car."
I think it's not good idea, considering the impact on global environment.
But, Queensland goverment seems to focus on refurbishment of Queensland Rail.
Is there a politician who wants to promote use of public transportation?
