The United States doesn’t even have tracks across all of the land-connected states. South Dakota and Wyoming don’t have Amtrak - if I’m not mistaken they have no public train services and you’d need a Greyhound bus.

If this fairly small college has this deal, I can only imagine what other schools and businesses have similar ones.
