    Why not both? Or train then subway? Or train then electric scooters for the last mine? I imagine in city specifically the coverage from trains alone is pretty poor.

      The dwellings and amenities within a 15 minutes walk, bike or other mode from a transit stop is important, and of course if you can have both buses, trains and other micromobility that’s ideal.

      This video mainly discusses how routes over a certain threshold of ridership would be better and more cheaply served over the long run by vehicles that sit between rails rather than buses.
