Most ponies in the [[Dusts]] travel primarily on hoof. There are usually at least minimally adequate roads between the major settlements, though they often become muddy or snowed-in during infrequent episodes of precipitation. Roads are sometimes obscured by drifts of dust.

An industry making lighter-than-air [[Airship|airships]] is centered in [[Trenchtown]]. They are primarily used to hunt [[Trench Whale|trench whales]], but a state-owned [[Aeropony|passenger airship service]] is operated, possibly for propaganda purposes. This service is very popular but not generally sufficient to provide for transportation needs between nearby settlements. Trenchtown sends irregular cargo airships between itself and [[Irongate]] when the [[Dusty Mountain Pass]] is blocked. A single airship, built in Irongate, serves the [[Ducal Hayminnow Airway]].

The [[Golden Age]] magical technology of making pegasus carts has, unfortunately, been lost. The few that remain have usually been extensively improved aesthetically such that one may now find what was once a humble trash cart gilded and carrying a wealthy leader. The loss of this technology has been ameliorated somewhat by the development, over the last few centuries, of pegasus-drawn gliders. Though unwieldy, they are much more widely available. 

A [[Docktown Railroad|railroad]], using recovered equipment found well-preserved in an ancient rail museum unearthed about a century ago, has been developed in the [[Eastern Dusts]].  A branch servicing the Edge has occasionally been discussed, but nothing has yet come of it yet; while it would be potentially extremely useful and profitable, it would also be a work of engineering of massive proportions.

Travel across the [[Dusty Mountains]] separating the Eastern and [[Western Dusts]] is by a comparatively well-maintained but long and winding road; travelers on it must be prepared for a variety of recurring hazards and are very well advised to travel in well-equipped groups and employ a guide if they have not made the journey at least several times before. The Dusty Mountains Pass is occasionally snowed in during winter; if this happens, it may take weeks to be cleared.
