The train thing came from them trying to solve train delays by cutting maintenance schedules and instituting absurd penalties for the train engineers if they didn't arrive on schedule.
The result was more accidents, more breakdowns, and more overall delays, but they were still just beating their chests and declaring they made the trains faster.
It sucks that italian fascism lead to German fascism and all the attendant horrors because if you could just do it in a vacuum and it just consisted of a bunch of dudes named Vincenzo and Giancarlo breaking trains to prove how masculine they are while everything falls apart around them it would be pretty funny to watch
