I am not surprised. But it did not hurt to try.
If you want to “fix” this you need a serious pixel editor and plan to spend some time. I am sorry.
For what it is worth we all take shots that are almost great. But some flaw happens.
For hobbyists it is an individual decision to spend time on it or discard it. Either way we can use it as a learning experience and not repeat the mistake.

I use it for stuff like this with varying results.

Quick fix, you have a shadow problem with possible color shift induced, it’s a 5 or 6 step process that goes fast in Ps, google how to remove shadows.

Shooting from a tour bus is always a challenge. I saw beautiful landscape but wondering if there's a way to eliminate the streaks caused by the polarized bus windows. I may have had a polarizer filter on the lens. Could that be the issue? Can it be cleaned up in Lightroom Classic?
You have two issues - dark bands and the color.
I would suggest you use Photoshop - make a new layer, filled with 50% gray, and call it dodge. Then paint with the dodge tool on that new layer using a very light opacity - 6% or a little more. and you will begin to neutralize the dark stripes. Then make a new empty layer. Use the eyedropper tool to sample areas next to those that were stripes - but are lacking color. Using the Brush tool, change its blend mode to color, so you won't paint out detail. Using a low opacity, paint with the sampled color into the areas that need the color. It's slow and painstaking work, but by dodging and painting on layers instead of the image, you can reverse the effect or even delete the layer if you want, without affecting the base image layer.
I would not even try to attempt this in Lightroom.

Gene is correct, before starting the process we throw in a luminosity check layer and a curves layer adjusted to maximize shadow area to be removed, then as fast as you can paint it in or out in your case it’s done, this is also an example of the perfect tablet application.

Actually, using the brush in LR is doing pretty much that in a simpler work flow (see my earlier response).
