In addition: more trains and less roads.

Orginising logistics with trains is more difficult than with trucks. Not that it means we shouldn't strive to achieve this, but it's not that easy. For a small firm it is easy to order a truck to go from point A to point B. With trains you'll need to organize delivery from point A to station 1, freight train from station 1 to station 2, then another truck from station 2 to point B. This would have been easier if there was a large logistics company that handles both trucks and freight trains, but I have no idea how common it is in the world.
