* Night express trains (''lalei phūmitammeyai'') are trains that operate on normal and high-speed lines during the night, providing sleeping accomodation. These trains are still very common in the Inquisition, as many people prefer nighttime trains to daytime air travel, citing time optimization as a factor. | * Night express trains (''lalei phūmitammeyai'') are trains that operate on normal and high-speed lines during the night, providing sleeping accomodation.

* International trains (''galababhrausirāhe tammeyai'') are express trains that connect cities of the Inquisition with foreign ones. They mainly depart from the cities of Kuma Nīmāliša, Kimbahēši, and Kuratugombē in the West; Tohailena and Mālim in the Northwest, and Måmatempuñih, Kateihaneh, Hålša, and Pethaṣāvīh in the Northeast, reaching most neighboring countries. The most travelled daily international routes are Mālim-Arvallivăt (Qualdomailor) and Måmatempuñih-Foamipaha (Brono), in addition to the ''Karinaktei phūmas'' linking every three days the Northern Chlouvānem city of Hålša to Tol Szyptag, the second-largest city of Karynaktja, passing through the whole country of Tulfasysz. | * International trains (''galababhrausirāhe tammeyai'') are express trains that connect cities of the Inquisition with foreign ones.

* Maglev trains (''lākterṣaikyap tammeyai'') are the fastest land vehicles on the planet, capable of reaching 700 vyā-g (about 711 km/h) and they are used on a few important routes, stopping in major cities only. Maglev trains are operative on three routes, all in the Jade Coast or the Eastern Plain: | * Maglev trains (''lākterṣaikyap tammeyai'') are the fastest land vehicles on the planet, capable of reaching 700 vyā-g (about 711 km/h) and they are used on a few important routes, stopping in major cities only.

Freight transport is also dominated by railways, giving rise to large freight depots even inside cities, even though they have often been closed, converted to public parks, and rebuilt outside the city as city growth circled them (this has happened most notably in Līlasuṃghāṇa, Ilēnimarta, and Līlikanāna, but not for example in Līlta which still has a mid-sized freight depot close to the city center). | Freight transport is also dominated by railways, giving rise to large freight depots even inside cities, even though they have often been closed, converted to public parks, and rebuilt outside the city as city growth circled them (this has happened most notably in Līlasuṃghāṇa, Ilēnimarta, and Līlikanāna, but not for example in Līlta which still has a mid-sized freight depot close to the city center). | ||
