That’s a thing here too. Seattle’s light rail even has bike hangers inside the trains. No fee though

How big of a country is it? Amtrak is usually similar price to flying at the cheapest (outside the northeast) with the least convenient schedule ever (the state I grew up in has two stations and never receives or launches a passenger train during the day).

Amtrak in the northeast corridor is about as fine as European rail is from what I hear, except no high speed. I really wish it could expand or get to Japan levels.
