It currently has over 3,000 buses and 2,000 train cars and operates routes all over Castrolla. It also runs the

History
During the Castrollan Revolutionary War, a system to move militia men from place to place was needed. The original system consisted of horse drawn carriages which moved penguins from place to place. After the war, the horse drawn carriage system was kept and expanded under the name L'administration de Trançítu de Jaxtroyia (Old Castrollan) by the government initially to provide shuttles for people in somewhat far-away places to get to towns and villages and back. The original fare was 1 cent with every 2 bags costing also a cent to admit onto the carriage. The system saw an expansion to accomodate more main street routes in towns and periodical shuttles back and forth from little villages into town squares. The system was renamed L´autoridad de Trançito de Castroya et de todel los isles (after the Castollan spelling reforms) many years later when it expanded to the other Castrollan islands. The system saw little changes after that until the mid 1800's when steam drawn buses were introduced (now as El Sistema de Transito Publico Castollano). Although expensive, the STPC (now CTA) bought the new steam powered buses and assigned them to bigger routes while at the same time buying new steam powered trams as a faster alternative for longer travel.

During the early 1900's, the system was expanded with the introduction of engine powered buses and new trains along with a ferry system. As cities were more organized, more bus services were added and so were train services and so were tram and ferry services cut. By 1930, the CTA had over 3,000 miles of tracks and 700 bus routes serving most of Castrolla. During the 1950's, air travel was added to CTA's services and was put officially to administer and serve as an overview to all of Castrolla's transportation services.

The 1970-1980's were hard times for the CTA. A major recession in Castrolla plunged the economy into a downfall, causing many to lose their jobs and therefore not rely on Rapid Transit. As a result, funding was also cut to the Rapid Transit sector of Castrolla and airfare was severely limited with Castrollan airports being known for their state of disrepair and Castrollan Rapid Transit known for its slowness and oldness. The oldest trains on the CTA fleet in 1986 were the 0-series wooden cars, first commissioned in 1920 and the 1000-series trains, which were first commissioned in 1960. The fleet was very deteriorated due to negligence and the median age of a station was 1935. Most of the train stations at that point were old wood with a very old coat of paint and tracks. Buses were no better with some buses dating back to 1940, the newest being from 1958.

In 1993, after the resurgence of the economy and new need of rapid transit, the CTA received lofty funding to help renovate all stations and fleet, resulting in a multi-year project and shutdown of many lines and construction of some new ones. The median age of buses today is 2015, and for trains 2014 with stations being at 2005.

Description
The Castrollan Transit Authority today runs over 900 routes in all Castrollan islands and 15 train routes spanning over 5,000 miles. The CTA also runs a commuter rail service which runs an additional 2,000 miles. Major airports, tourist attractions and also residential neighborhoods and industrial districts are served by the CTA. Airports are also managed by CTA and have 24/7 bus and train services to and from many Castrollan cities. CTA operates 24/7 bus and train service on select routes and express service.

"Night owl" buses are identified by an N in front of the normal route destination sign (e.g. "54 PENGICERO TO // DEVAN/KEZDIE" -> "N54 PENGICERO OWL // TO DEVAN/KEZDIE ") and Express buses are identified by an X in front of the route number destination sign (e.g. "X54 PENGICERO EXP //  TO DEVAN/KEZDIE "); special "Jump!" routes are identified by the J in their route number (e.g. 'J54 PENGICERO // JUMP! // TO DEVAN/KEZDIE ")
