picking up rural passengers at their property lines

Lol what? Unless you are disabled, you don't need someone to pick you up at your property line. That's carbrain entitlement. Walk to the train station/bus depot, cycle, or drive a modest car that short distance (the latter being exactly what some of my family do, who live in a more developed nation).

I do agree we also need to expand infrastructure to accommodate disabled people, though. That's a separate issue.

The point is, we can have a train and bus system here. It's been done in the past. Personally, I'd welcome it. Owning a car is such a pointless and unsustainable money sink.
