Federation Carriers

Federation Star Cruises and Federation Starline
Federation Star Cruises and Federation Starline are the national carriers of the Federation of United Species. Both founded in 1955 UD, the Starline was a regular Starline to surrounding nations and within the Federation while the Star Cruises started as low warp ships touring the Federation. Eventually, they both expanded their operations, with StarLines being accessible throughout the known universe while Star Cruises can be seen traversing the galaxy. They are both owned by the government and private corporations.

Trans Federation Rapid StarWay
The Trans Federation Rapid StarWay is a interstellar, rapid transport system linking together multiple main systems within FUS. It is owned by both the Ministry of Transport and Capital StarWays.

History
Throughout FUS history, there were mass rapid transit systems between planets within a solar system or within several systems which are owned by several companies. However with the invention of the Distort 10 engine in 2249, travel within the nation has been shortened to several minutes. So in 2251, following the approval for Distort 10 engines on Civilian ships, the Trans Federation Rapid StarWay was created linking several core systems together. In the following years, the system expanded to incorporate the major systems of FUS.

Usage
The Network is divided into several lines, like a rapid transit system. Each line goes to different areas, with the Capital Line being the busiest. Each Station is in space and a Transporter network or existing transport systems are used to transport commuters from the surface. As the system is within dpo, no documents are needed to board. Each ship arrives in 5 minute intervals at non peak periods and at 1 minute intervals at peak periods. Commuters use the network to commute between places of work, residence and education.

Ships
The Trans Federation Rapid StarWay uses three types of starships. They are the Rs 100, for shorter lines, Rs 200 for medium lines and Rs 300 for longer lines. The differences between the ships is that their size, passenger capacity, acceleration and cabin vary from ship to ship. The ships traverse through their own Star routes to save time.

Influence
Before the network, most people in FUS have work places nearby and rarely on other planets in other systems. However after the establishment of the network, more people have workplaces on other planets. It has been cited that the Trans Federation Rapid StarWay made FUS more united and connected than before. During the zombie war, the network was still functioning no matter what and made travel easier. During the construction of the network, there was some controversy that domestic StarWays might go out of business as the Trans Federation Rapid StarWay would connect many systems and so the purpose of the domestic StarWays would be pointless. However, in the end, the StarWays actually continued as they helped to connect systems not connected to the Network.
