Many urban-suburban trains, and even some regional trains, have entire cars dedicated for bicycles, with no (or only few) seats. This is very scalable on multiple scales, when the demand is growing:
Adding more bicycle cars to existing bike-friendly trains 🏩🚞🚃🚃🚃🚃🏫
Adding more bike-friendly trains to existing lines 🚆🚆🚉🚊🚇🚇
Building new well-placed bike-friendly stations on existing lines 🏢🏪🚵♂️🚵♀️🚈
Adding more passenger railway lines to existing rail networks. 🛤️🛤️🛤️🛤️🛤️
Don’t forget you can ride a mile or two to the train station and get around like that.
