Could you elaborate on the feasibility of purchasing Bitcoin directly at a train station in Switzerland? It seems an unconventional location for cryptocurrency transactions, given the traditional nature of railway facilities. Do train stations in Switzerland offer Bitcoin ATMs or similar services? Are there any specific train stations known for supporting such transactions? And what would be the steps involved in such a purchase, assuming it's possible? Clarifying these points would help me understand the practicality of this question.

Despite the convenience offered, SBB's Bitcoin service comes with a significant cost. Transaction fees range from 6% to 14%, depending on the amount being purchased.
