And last mile how?

Progressively smaller gauge railways, until your Amazon parcel arrives via a 1-inch track on the regular 3.15pm service from the end of your street.

You know what?

I'd love to hear a little "toot-toot!" and have a little train pull up outside my window, with my parcel on a carriage behind it.

I just bought an e-scooter and it comes later this week. I am so stoked to be able to get around a little easier.
