Some infinities are bigger than others but those are both the same sized infinity, ℵ₀. Same if you multi-track drift.
Edit: I didn’t read it closely enough, it says “one person for every real number”. Which is indeed a larger infinity. However I don’t think you can diagram that, the diagram is showing a countable infinity of people on the lower track.
Killing one person for each real number, the train will be killing an uncountably infinite quantity of people in any given finite time slice.
I was gonna say, these 2 infinities are the same. I think Vsauce made a second video on infinity to try and clarify it, but putting “more numbers” in between an infinite amount of numbers doesn’t make it larger
