It is Mort's Gauss rail system which is the main
source of long distance transport across the planet. The Gauss trains
are double decker carriages, stretching eight metres across with seats
large enough to hold a Stormer or Shaktar with ease. Each carriage is
approximately 50 metres long and up to 20 carriages can be pulled by
each engine. A typical train will have eight passenger carriages, two
deluxe carriages for those with high SCL and four storage carriages. The
deluxe carriages offer more individual space in private booths.
However, occupants must have an SCL of five or higher. These booths are
made available to those with the highest SCL first. Basic food and drink
facilities are also available in the carriages nearest the standard
carriages. All of the seats face towards the front of the train to
support passengers from the rapid acceleration of the train.
Deceleration of the train is at a slower rate than the acceleration and
in most cases is hardly felt by the occupants of the train. Excess
energy from braking is stored in flywheels and reused when the train
accelerates again. Security on all trains is handled by Cloak sponsored
Shivers, who ensure that no harm befalls anyone.

Inside of any city the train is restricted to
travelling at around 600mph. However, outside of these cities some long
distance trains reach speeds of five times this. This allows a traveller
to reach the outskirts of Mort City within four hours and then change
to a faster train and visit Meny or Orienta in a further four and six
hours respectively. Most of the travel inside of the city is undertaken
through large armoured tunnels that prevent anything from impeding the
train. However outside of the cities the trains are open to the normal
sky. The speed of the train usually prevents any attempts to hijack them
in these outskirt locations. There are also very few stations outside
of the cities, with most trains travelling to and from specified
locations without stopping. The majority of the trains tracks are in
dead straight lines, to prevent any stresses on the train or its
occupants in trying to change direction. The only real changes in
direction are undertaken at a station where the train will be travelling
at a fraction of its normal speed.
