Expanded baggage service has signifigant costs beyond the baggage cars. Baggage handling equipment, baggage rooms in stations, and in some locations added personell or longer hours for existing persons. On state supported routes, the state has to kick in to pay for it. It would probably be fairly popular, but financially unlikely to happen in the near term. In some areas, the political gains from offering expanded bike service might be enough of an inducement to see it happen, time will tell.
