Peter F. Hamilton's Commonwealth Saga involves interstellar travel on trains[1] which pass through artificial wormholes. I wouldn't recommend the books; he creates a world with so much potential, but the characters and story are disappointing.

- zazard 10y agoI really liked these books. Would love to know about some that you would recommend, then, you seem to be harder to convince than I am :) Also, it seems he is currently writing a new trilogy in the same universe (The Chronicle of the Fallers), the first of which is already out. Haven't read it yet, however.

Oh I would thoroughly disagree, I thought Pandora's Star and Judas Unchained were cracking reads even if they are a bit chunky. At no time did I feel either of the books hit any flat spots, I rattled through both of them in about two weeks whilst reading in my spare time.
