How would that be different for trains? Trains would have similar numbers or more devices, moving at a similar speed (for high speed trains compared to planes at take-off/landing).

I think part of the issue is that cell tower antennas are designed for talking to devices on the ground or at very low altitudes (like those you'd experience in a tall building). So a cell tower's capacity for talking to lots of somethings directly above it, thousands of feet up, is much lower than talking to lots of somethings below it or adjacent to it.
