Not in the European Union, as Krist van Besien mentioned in the comments, for 2 reasons:

  1. Except for Eurostar, [no railways can prove you weren’t on the train] in Europe.  Krist van Besien 1 hour ago
  2. EU rules don’t permit no-show fees. So you have part of hour answer there. – Krist van Besien 1 hour ago

I think there is a major misunderstanding - a no-show fee is not an additional fee you are supposed to pay, but a reduction of the value of your ticket.
In other words, if you buy a ticket for $ 300, and don’t show up, your remaining ticket value is not $ 300, but a reduced amount - reduced by the no-show fee.

If you have a ticket for a train or bus (or a concert or a football game), and don’t show up, the remaining value of your ticket is simply zero. You could call this a “100%-no-show-fee”; they simply don’t use that term.
