Yes, passenger trains experienced a decline in the 1920s due to the rise of automobile travel and the expansion of highways, which offered greater flexibility and convenience for travelers. Additionally, the growing popularity of air travel began to emerge toward the end of the decade, further diminishing the dominance of railroads in the passenger transport sector. Despite these challenges, trains remained an important mode of transportation for longer distances and freight.

Automobiles are more convenient than trains for most people. One must get to the rail station and get there when the train is there.

If railroads make more money on freight, they were will slight the passenger service in favor of hauling freight.
