RTS Loop
The RTS Loop, officially the Rauratoshan Loop, is a subway system in Rauratoshan built over the course of its first three months as a ŋation. It also connects, indirectly or directly, to the Coastal and Ŋafrican Cenrail lines and the Leshrail.
The organization in charge of the subway system is referred to as the RTS Loop team, and it is a subgroup of the Rauratoshan Transportation Commission. The RTS Loop team maintains the Rauratoshan Loop itself, as well as any offshoots of the Loop that are developed. The Elemental Metro and Hydra Line are primarily managed by groups that technically are not part of the bureaucracy of Rauratoshan, but the RTS Loop team does help maintain these lines too.

Connections
The Rauratoshan Loop's stations are connected in a large circular shape, much like the Cenrail Southern Line. This ensures that it is simple to get to every station on the loop.
Unlike the official Cenrail, the Rauratoshan Loop uses a different thematic color for each station. These are labeled in the same sequence as the rainbow. This is for accessibility purposes.

Overview of Rauratoshanian transit
There are presently plans to build a shuttle between Elemental City's Cenrail station and the Rauratoshan Loop station, known as the "Elemental Crossing."
There are four lines that are direct offshoots of the Rauratoshan Loop, which are in varying stages of completion:
- Fallen Line: Planned to run through the Nether, connecting Azeria and Elemental City. The town planned to be around the main body of the Fallen Line is Fallenarbor Town. It will connect indirectly to the Leshrail, but will be considered a local rail rather than a Leshrail offshoot. Currently, this line has yet to be surveyed.
- Sugar Line: Planned to connect New Kairi Island to the rest of Rauratoshan, and from there to Midnights Era, Port of Eras. Will run from Irisela Island. Currently, this line is partially complete.
- Hydra Line: Planned to connect Elemental City to Vallis Draconum. Currently, this line is partially complete.
- Lemnis Line: Planned to connect the equally-planned New Lemnis City to the rest of Rauratoshan. Will likely connect to either Lígatal or Azeria.
Note that even though the Sugar and Hydra lines are international, they are not part of Cenrail. Rather, they are considered part of the Ŋafrican Association of Rail Networks.
