Depends on the definition of safety. Though, it’s not unreasonable to consider it as deaths/distance.
Planes would still be safer when considering deaths per distance. In 2020, trains had a death rate of 0.03 per 100,000,000 passenger miles, while planes had 0.00095 per 100,000,000 passenger miles.
