Passenger Vehicles ![Icon passengers.png](/wiki/images/thumb/a/af/Icon_passengers.png/24px-Icon_passengers.png)
Passenger transportation is the main source of Money Tokens in this game. Passenger vehicles are used to transport Passengers
between towns. Passengers
arriving at a town will also increase the town size. Also, if you have enabled Passenger Destination, the people will automatically transfer between buses and trains. That way you can increase the amount of people at train station, bringing them from the far away parts of town.
Mail Vehicles ![Icon mail.png](/wiki/images/thumb/a/a6/Icon_mail.png/24px-Icon_mail.png)
Another way of generating Money Tokens in the game is to deliver Mail
between Post Offices. These buildings appear in the Steam Era and they show up in all towns on the map. Mail
works in a similar manner to passengers
, including Passenger Destination. Delivering mail
also contributes to the town growth.
