Perhaps less security theater? Here in the US, what little "train service" we have has zero security theater. You arrive, walk in with your luggage rolling behind you, and no one checks you over, pats you down, feels you up, or otherwise does anything "security check" wise. You show your ticket at the counter (to prove you purchased a ticket), go sit and wait, walk out to the train with your luggage when it is time, and climb aboard.
