Common Personality: Laborious, strong "keep on chugging" attitudes.

Society:There's different kind of Train societies usually divided based off what kind of load they carry. All trains carry some sort of load. Their society is entirely driven by hard-work and perseverence. They don't recognize any gods or rulers.
Home Planet: It's a giant flat plane (with various elevations). If you go off the edge, you just go to the other side. There's absolutely no wildlife except for the Faux. The Faux are essentially just rough imitations of long dead wildlife and humanoids built out of spare parts. The landscape is mostly dessert and mountains, but there's some areas with fake water and/or fake grass. The sky is constantly full of smog.
Relationships: The strongest form of relationship recognized in Train society is called a Labor Union. They're labor unions but society recognizes them as being s*xy.

Guardians: Train conductors. They're just Faux humanoids who always wear train conductor clothing and always have access to a cane.
Symbol Rules: They're essentially the same style as Metro symbols. They're always on the side.
