Slokasian Rail Authority is a railway operator in Slokais Islands. It is an agency inside the Minstry of Transportation that runs over 2,000 miles of track in Slokais. Slokasian Rail was created in 1918 by President [[Alexander Lin], although greatly expanded during the 1930s and 40s. In 2022 passenger traffic was 115,789,456 journeys over the course of the year.
High-Speed Era
Between 1995 and 2015, 21 billion Marks were spent on upgrading the system to high speed and building new lines. The gage for most lines is 3'6" but some smaller lines are non-electrified slower trains. The route of most lines is made to go through already built city transit hubs and then from those hubs smaller slower local lines. However, the fastest train is the San Fernando Line from San Fernando through San Jose and New Liverpool and ends in Victoria City. On average trains on the San Fernando Line can go up to 200 mph or 321kmh.
Ammenties and Fairs
On some of the longer train trips, meals are included in your ticket price, for example, the San Fernando Line typically has a selection of rice dishes. Ticket prices are set per mile with lower prices on off-peak hours. However less-used lines are not set per mile but at a set price. Tickets can be either in physical form or in an SR Railcard which is taken fromm your balance every time you swipe at the exits of platforms. These tickets can be filled either by phone or by ticket machine. Fair is reduced for those under 12 and over 65, with homeless persons receiving free fair cards for certain lines.
