Rail doesn't get congested the same way highways do and nothing in your house is worth more than your life when evacuating. If you want to keep certain belongings safe, maybe it is best to transport them away before hurricane season comes.
Hell even a well serperated bus lane and lots of buses could evacuate more people than cars.
This is a point worth emphasizing. In fact, Oh The Urbanity! made an entire video explaining it, which everyone ought to watch.
If I can't take my dog I'm not going, and thats likely the issue for a lot of others. The government does have buses for evacuation but you can't bring pets on them.
The people without pets can take the rail which can lessen the congestion on the highway for people who need to transport pets. More options is better than 1 option.
