Yes, that's the best way which is often used. A "leaky cable" aka "leaky feeder", to be particular.
Wifi inside the trains involves much more work, and to get them to ALSO be seamless across the entire setup - even harder. Easily 10x or 100x the cost.
It's sad, because the Internet shouldn't be that bad when the network drops all the time; it should just be slower as it waits to send good data.
