At a quick glance, none of those have a similar graph telling the same story: How efficient is it to get my own-self from A to B. A freight train sure moves a lot of mass, but how efficient is it for people-loads? The first article comes close, but is more about why bicycles are so energy efficient (due to of all things not stretching your muscles!)
