Hmm... run more trains with the extra money collected :).

I can't come up with anything good, honestly.
-Making "slots" for standees (like 8 per doorway, + 2 for the end doors, 34 total) could run out on extremely popular trains.
-A reader that prints out seat checks doesn't work either if a standee decides to sit, without unnecessarily complicating the at seat interface with ways to turn a seat check into a green light, or a return to making the conductor walk the train looking at tiny sheets of paper.

The best I can come up with is a free ride for standees beyond the slots available in option 1 above. If every car on the train has more than 34 standees for someone's entire journey, they probably deserve a free ride anyway.
