Usually, planes are faster than trains, but if a plane flies very slow and a train moves very fast, they can travel at the same speed.

Aircraft are simply designed to go faster, they are far more aerodynamic, and have propulsion systems designed for speed. True airspeed: as altitude increases, air density decreases, creating less friction.
While trains have more accidents, plane crashes typically kill a lot more people per incident. In 2014, there were 990 plane-related deaths, but only 21 fatal airliner accidents. That's an average of 47 deaths per flight.
Maximum achievable running speed in excess of 200 km/h (124 mph), or 250 km/h (155 mph) for very high-speed, Average running speed across the corridor in excess of 150 km/h (93 mph), or 200 km/h (124 mph) for very high-speed.
The North American X-15 may be the fastest plane in the world, with speeds at 4,520 mph and Mach 5.93. It's an experimental aircraft used and powered by NASA and USAF.
