Rail travel on Taiwan Railways provides direct station-to-station connections with predictable schedules and minimal transfers compared with flights. Buses serve similar routes but have longer journey times and variable traffic impact; flights are not practical for this short regional corridor. For central Taiwan travel between Tianzhong and Taibao, regional rail remains the most reliable public transport option.
