The Dominion of Trainmaster is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Director Ton with an even hand, and renowned for its avowedly heterosexual populace, disturbing lack of elderly people, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, devout population of 12.603 billion Passengers are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 37.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Trainmasterian economy, worth 761 trillion Monies a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Furniture Restoration, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 60,449 Monies, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Government crews work tirelessly to retake the suburbs from organized packs of raccoons, the "temporary replacement bus service" is now a permanent fixture, the most popular WhoTube videos are ones featuring parodies of iconic songs, and death row inmates cower in fear at the phrase "one-year anniversary". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Trainmaster's national animal is the Light Train, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Trainmaster is ranked 298,473rd in the world and 8th in Train Station for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring -8.22 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
