    Ideally busses shouldn’t even be used in situations like that as rail is significantly more efficient but a train wouldn’t want to slow for one passenger either.

      @Tak Or build stations and tracks where so few people will use them.

      Building more tracks for everything would be good, but still not an answer for everything.

      A world where we only had trains and push bikes would be nice, but not likely to happen.

          @figstick @Tak you probably need a density of more than 1 person per square km. That is where most people live. It is great for most people. Maybe even nearly everyone.

          But for the last 0.1% something else is needed.

          But even then it might be better to have personal rail vehicles on private tracks (the same tracks the farm should be using for it’s produce.
