History

The origins

Railways have played an important role in Izaland since their first diffusion in the 19th century, with the first line opened between Sainðaul and Kawayatsu in 1845.

The high speed network and its Historical Background

In the 1950s, Izaland had one of the densest railway networks in Eastern Uletha, with approximately 27,000 kilometers of active track. The network connected nearly all major towns and cities, supporting economic growth and urbanization. By 1951, 18,560 kilometers of the network had been electrified, and 6,590 kilometers were double-tracked. The Keishin Main Line, connecting the capital city of Sainðaul to the port city of Warohan, was the flagship route. Powered by the PR0980 EMU, the line offered a journey time of 4 hours and 48 minutes over a distance of 635 kilometers.

However, the aftermath of the Great War brought significant economic challenges, which hindered the maintenance and expansion of the railway network. Rising electricity costs and a lack of resources led to the closure and de-electrification of many lines. Despite these setbacks, rail transport remained a priority for national recovery efforts.

The introduction of high-speed rail marked a transformative era in Izaland's railway system. In the post-war period, as the nation began rebuilding, policymakers and engineers faced a crucial decision: either to modernize the existing conventional rail network or to develop a new high-speed rail infrastructure. While initial efforts focused on restoring pre-existing lines, the growing population and economic recovery of the 1960s prompted more ambitious plans.

The Keishin High-Speed Line

The Keishin High-Speed Line, Izaland's first high-speed railway, was conceived as part of President Yamase Chān Toiraku's 1961 economic initiative, Izaki, Mirae Sakuchen ("Izaland, Building the Future"). One of the flagship projects under this plan was the "Falcon Train" (Illena Ryessha) which aimed to connect Sainðaul and Warohan in under four hours. This ambitious vision laid the foundation for the development of the high-speed rail network.

Development and Expansion

Construction of the Keishin High-Speed Line began in 1963, with the first segment between Chikawari (Komokata Prefecture) and Panaireki completed on 1 September 1972. Initially, trains operated from Kasakuri Station, though the capacity of the conventional railway quickly became strained, prompting adjustments to operations.

By 1975, the line was extended to Warohan, allowing trains to travel the full distance between Sainðaul and Warohan at speeds of up to 260 km/h. This reduced the travel time between the two cities to approximately 2 hours and 45 minutes, marking a significant improvement in intercity connectivity.

Further milestones in the line's development included:

• 1983: The Millennium Tunnel was inaugurated, enabling trains to reach Sainðaul Central Station. However, speed restrictions within the corridor limited its full potential.
• 1990: A bypass between Chikawari and Komishinan was opened, allowing express trains to avoid the densely populated Midōhinnan region. This bypass facilitated higher speeds for non-stop services (designated as "A" and "C" trains).
• 2004: A western extension between Sakamuso (in Saindzaul's outskirts) and Kichatsura was completed. This segment included long tunnels through the Kubori Mountains, providing an alternative route for "D" and "E" trains.
• 2012: The long-awaited underground section connecting Chikawari to Sainðaul Central Station was completed, bypassing Riimibaiken and introducing Sainðaul Niji (west) Station beneath Kasakuri. This significantly enhanced capacity and operational efficiency.
• 2014: The line was further extended to Asunahama International Airport, integrating air and rail travel.

Privatization and Modernization

Izaland's railways were historically managed by the state-owned National Railways of Izaland. However, in recent decades, the system underwent significant privatization and restructuring to improve efficiency and service quality. Today, the network is operated by Izarail, which oversees both high-speed and conventional rail services. The privatization process has spurred competition, leading to technological advancements and a focus on customer satisfaction.

Operators and services

Overview

Rail transport in Izaland is provided by different companies, mainly being:

Izarail Group

• Izarail: the main railway company, formerly a group controlled by the state, got privatized in 1998.

Today it operates most of the rail network in the country, including the high speed railway, with the subsidiary IZX.

• Several private companies, mostly controlling suburban lines in certain cities and subway networks, and some regional lines
• Izarail Kwabus, the national-wide freight operator (outside Kubori Island, foreigner freight railway operators are allowed to enter Izaland)

Main private railways

• Shinsabu Electric Railways
• Rinkyun Railway

Gauge

Most of the railways in Izaland are built in standard gauge (1,435 mm), including the high speed railway, allowing thus interoperability with the former railways. Some local lines or subway lines have also different gauges, such as 1,067 mm or 1,544 mm. The usual distance between tracks is 5,5 m from the edges.

Electrification

Almost the 86% of all the railways in Izaland are electrified (overhead lines, 25000 V 50 Hz AC for high speed rail and 3000 V DC for local lines). Non electrified lines are mainly run by hybrid trains or battery trains. Since 2014 Izaland, in order to diminish CO2 emissions, started a massive program of withdrawal of diesel trainsets and locomotives.

Passenger Service

In Izaland everyday about 52,3 million users ride on different kind of trains, especially in the main urbanized areas. Basically in Izaland Railway services are divided into the following categories:

Train types

Suburban or intercity railway lines usually have different types of trains running on their tracks (列車種別, ryessha shubyes) with different stop patterns.

A train that stops at every station is called a local train (普通列車, futsōn-ryessha). Trains that stop at fewer stations and are therefore faster than local trains are classified as Rapid (快速列車, kwaisoku-ryessha), Express (急行列車, kyungyō-ryessha), Limited Express (特急列車, tukkyun-ryessha), etc. and may require surcharges depending on company policies.

Intercity trains, mainly operated by IR, are called City-linker Limited Express (都市連結特急列車, toshi-lyenkes tukkyun-ryessha, often shortened in 都急, tokyun) and run on traditional non-high speed railway (although they can reach 200 kph on certain upgraded lines).

High speed railway (IZX) has different train types, including direct, all stop and fast trains (see the article for further information).

Commuter networks

Izaland counts 11 cities with a population over 1 million inhabitants. In these and also less large cities, Izarail, altogether with locally administered subway networks and private railways, operates several commuter lines, using either existent railway tracks and newly built ones, to move million of commuters every day.

Capital suburban Network

High Speed Rail

IZX Network as of 2022

IZX (IZaland eXpress) is the commercial brand name for the high speed rail services in Izaland, operated by a subsidiary of Izarail, the main railway operator of the country. The high speed railway network mostly uses dedicated tracks (standard gauge) with some segments in common with pre-existing regional railway tracks to extend services to areas where dedicated lines is not (yet) available. The operating speed is usually between 220 to 320 kph on most of the alignment, with some segments allowing as fast as 360 kph speed.

• Warohan - Daishin Nankai Line (Warohan - Satsokoibo - Shin-Nuskajui - Daishin) - 115,6 km

Urban mass transit

Due to the high density of population, Izaland has many cities with a population over 1 million inhabitants. Besides suburban railway networks, different cities have subway and other mass transit system such as monorails or trams.

The cities with a subway system are:

• Sainðaul
• Warohan

Subways

The follow cities have a subway network

City	Number of lines	Lenght of the system
Sainðaul (greater area)	18	606,3 km
Warohan		151,46 km
Panaireki		137,95 km
Kichatsura		87,06 km
Sannupuri		93,46 km
Daishin		84,38 km

Road system

Izaland has a network of [tba] kms of highways connecting the major cities, numbered with the system "E-n", where n is a number. The main route of the network is the E1 (Keishin) highway, connecting the capital and Warohan calling at all the major cities of the western coast. This is not the fastest way to travel between the two cities, but indeed it is the busiest segment, as along its length lives nearly the 70% of the whole country population.

Due to the geological and geographic characteristic of the country, Izaki highways make an extensive use of tunnels and bridges, and this justifies the not too cheap toll price. For this reason, most of the traffic is freight or mass transportation.

Between the continental side and the island side of the country, there are 4 highway links, with one freeway and three paid highways.

Aviation

Introduction

Aviation in Izaland has played a key role in the country's connectivity and economic development since the early 20th century. The country's first airport, Jufurai Airfield, built in 1905, marked the beginning of its aviation history. The first recorded flight across the bay from Jufurai to Tsaikkani Airfield in the experimental aircraft "Hinufuwo I", piloted by Fumaoi Eris, set the stage for the nation's future in aviation.

Commercial aviation began on 5 June 1924 with a historic flight from Jufurai Airfield to Panaireki Airfield aboard a Watanabe W7 aircraft carrying Prime Minister Watarui as a passenger.

Today, Izaland boasts a robust aviation industry, led by Izaland Airlines and Uletha Eastern Airways, connecting the nation to key destinations across Uletha and beyond.

History of Aviation

The first major milestone in Izaland's aviation history was the construction of Jufurai Airfield in 1905, located in what is now Jufurai Park, in Sainðaul. Early aviation efforts were experimental, culminating in the first successful flight by Fumaoi Eris. By the 1920s, commercial aviation began to take shape, with Izaland Royal Airlines, a state-funded carrier, emerging as the nation's first major airline in 1921. Private carriers like Warohan & Miuro Royal Aviation, and Zhenkuku Aviation also operated during this period.

The opening of Sainðaul Kanui Airport in 1935 marked a new era, establishing a central hub for Izaland's growing air traffic. During the Second Republic, Izaland Royal Airlines transitioned into Izaland State Airlines (1939), and private airlines consolidated into New Uletha Airways, which later became Uletha Eastern Airways in 1970.

The Great War left Izaland State Airlines deeply indebted, leading to the establishment of Izaland Airlines in 1954, a state-owned entity that eventually underwent privatization in 1999. Since then, Izaland Airlines and Uletha Eastern Airways have dominated the market.

Airlines in Izaland

Historic Airlines

Izaland Royal Airlines was the nation's first major carrier, playing a key role in early aviation development. Private airlines like Warohan and Miuro Royal Aviation also contributed to the industry's growth, ultimately merging with Central Izaland Air System to form New Uletha Airways.

Current Airlines

• Izaland Airlines (IZ): The nation's flagship carrier, known for its extensive domestic and international network.
• Uletha Eastern Airways (UE): A leading airline connecting Izaland with Eastern Uletha and beyond.
• Northern Sea Airways (NS): Serving Northern Izaland and providing links to Southeast and Northeast Uletha.
• IZislander (IZ): A subsidiary of Izaland Airlines focused on regional island connectivity.
• Fliza (FL), Mike Wings (8M), and Nulbian Air (NX): Low-cost carriers catering to budget travelers in Eastern Uletha and parts of Northern Archanta.

The main international airport of the country is Sainðaul Asunahama International Airport, hub for Izaland Airlines and Uletha Eastern Airways, the two main air carriers of Izaland. Low cost carriers include IzaFly, subsidiary of Izaland Airlines, Northern Sea Airways, based in Sannupuri and Suupoots (Nuen) and focusing on Northern Uletha, and Mike Wings, operating mainly charters and leisure flights in Eastern Ulethia.

Although many islands close to the mainland coast are linked with bridges or undersea tunnels, many of the offshore islands, or the not so populated ones have a ferry system. These sea lines are generally covered by the national transportation transit system IZWay, a rechargeable smart card to pay for different means of transportation.

The longest sea route is a weekly ferry from Sainðaul to Ogamoton, via Kanlisahna, taking 18 hours. The ferry leaves Sainðaul port on Fridays, at 23:30, reaching Ogamoton port the following day at 17:30. In case of bad weather or not safe sea conditions, this ferry is often cancelled, however in 2018 finally Ogamoton airport opened.
