Bullet trains are often used when traveling between states, Emerald Line being the most iconic trainline. Within cities, monorails and street cars are most frequently used, and both modes of transportation are operated by the city themselves.

Tourists are familiar with our purple buses that have "Bus" painted on the side to avoid confusion. The more experienced tourists are also familiar with our unmarked taxis, which usually have seven passengers going to different locations, a 500cc engine and a hibachi in the trunk; there aren't many other taxis in the world that serve meals.

The most famous public transport in the Confederacy is the Seheron transport services in the capital. All buses, trains and trams are completely autonomous, electric vehicles, that are free of charge. Every other Boeric city is completing a modernization program to follow its lead

The Visayan National Railway system is a network of underground and underwater railways connecting the various provinces of the NVI. The most famous station of this network is the Cebu Grand Central, with direct connections covering the entire District of Humabon, the Province of Cebu, and the Province of Bohol.

Philipswijk has no rapid transit or tram system, instead there's a large busway network.

Astrolinium has, perhaps, two systems which could be thought of as public transit. The most obvious is the single bus line which runs through the Town of Astrolinium (an additional one runs during festivals), the Astrolinium Municipal Transit System. The other is the ferry service which runs between the island of Astrolinium and the neighboring nations of Malsitar and Eugepae.

Great Nortend's trams and railways are considered a well-known tourist sight, with traditional railway steam locomotives dominating the railways and 'atmospheric' rattling trams in historic city centres being a great draw.

Due to the largely undeveloped nature of Exodia's highways and railroads, (suspended monorails and subways are currently under construction in Dryvet Metro and New Collective City) most nationwide travel is conducted by zeppelin. Zeppelins typically stop at designated stations, but will occasionally be able to ferry passengers to airports if there's minimal plane traffic. Most zeppelins are owned by the Ferris Transport Company, but some are state-owned.

Krumolia is renowned for its modern network of "Cheetah-Class" mag-lev trains. The fastest models can reach speeds up to 1000 km/h. Their construction led to a boom in Krumolia's economic development due to rapidly falling transportation costs.

In large cities: Zitravgrad Metro (Underground Train) is famous internationally due to high speed, punctuality and efficiency, as well as how deep down the stations are. Moreover, Metro stations are the meeting point between upper Zitravgrad and lower Zitravgrad (underground part of the country.
In small cities: taxis - both cars or motorcycles. Of course, motorcycles are more fun.
Between cities: High-speed electro-magnetic trains.

The formerly wartorn nation keeps a facade of normalcy and order while enjoying the societal and cultural decadence that marks the new Roaring Twenties. The paranoid authoritarian government tries its best to uphold order in the face of uncertainty, while its people want nothing more than a breathing space.

The most important train service on the Ahakistan National Railways is the 25-car long Pradzia or known in Basic language as "The Star." This daily overnight express train runs from the Ahakistan capital of Astina on the shores of the Azyr Sea right across the country to the far west's major city, Illanka.

One additional famous train, the Jurin, which once ran between the capital and the seaside resort town of Eyat, is being relaunched with a new series of double-decker sleeper and coach seats, plus the most modern dining car in the entire rolling stock fleet. This train will leave at night and arrive in Eyat the following afternoon, following the Azyr coastal line; allowing passengers to see the beautiful majesty of the inland sea shared by Ahakista, and neighboring Bataria and Desevran.
