I've seen those trucks with a bunch of cars packed on top, something like that (minus truck) could totally fit in a train cargo container.

The loading and unloading is a pain.

Without looking deeper it’s probably cost prohibitive. Looking at long train rides cost a thousand dollars and takes 3-4 days, might as well just fly at that point.

Yeah putting cars on trains is the opposite of a solution lol. All that cargo space used on a car probably just ends up driving the cost of the train ticket up for everyone. If you really need a car, rent one at your destination, like you would when flying.
