As a buyer, if a seller told me he was going to ship a bike via Greyhound or Amtrak I'd tell to forget it. I'm not driving to the bus terminal or train station...NFW.

For complete bicycles FedEx is the way to go. If properly packaged it will get there safely and in a timely matter.
For framesets that fit in a 108" box it a toss up between USPS and FedEx. Expensive frames that need insurance go FedEx, lesser frames go USPS.
