The Tin City buses and commuter trains, which were allowed to ease operations as a result of inadequate maintenance by the past adminisrations are among the modes of transport that benefit Plateau citizens.

As Barrister Caleb Manasseh Mutfwang assumed office in 2023 as the governor of Plateau State, he made positive attempts to revive the rail system and other Moribund state asset into usage.
