Other trains and train infrastructure on the show[edit | edit source]

In PARTIZAN[edit | edit source]

  • Cruciat's Winter Palace has a train roundhouse as logistics hub, also serving trucks, planes, ships, and mechs. It has a central elevator, connecting to the underground Rapid Evening facilities.[2]
    • An armored train connects the secret basement with the prison in the military wing of the city, with no stops in between. The vehicle is described as "deeply frightening", made of "dark metal" and having either no windows or just window slits.[3]
  • SBBR use a train that runs between Orion, Nideo and Columnar territory on Partizan for transport in PARTIZAN 07: Ambush in the Sand. There is a "BYOB style component" to the deal, allowing the party to bring their own trailer to hold their mechs to reduce costs.
    • The party travels from Oxbridge to in the middle of nowhere in the Memoria Teardrop, half a day's travel away from Lake Timea (by mech). Austin describes the ride as a "multi-day train situation", "like a New York to Detroit or something like that".
    • Since it runs through Orion territory, the train has accomodations for non-normative and robotic bodies. Austin implies that this would not be the case for trains run by/for Stel Kesh or Stel Apostolos.
  • Cruciat has a busy train station, with a lot of people coming from far away even during Millenium Break's takeover of the city.[4]
