      More efficient to have one central system over many small ones. Also, many forms of transportation can easily use steel wheels, such as trains and trams.

        Mine doesn’t have a subway/metro. A 1route regional train. We are finally making light rail, but it’s very behind schedule and has cost 142 billion and still isn’t very wide. The primary public transit is busses.
