The Passenger Preparation Car, also known as the Passenger Farm or the Tape Car, is a car where newly arrived passengers are prepped for their stay on the Infinity Train. It is also, according to a documentary by One-One, the only car where the universe is projected on the outside, suggesting the train and the surrounding world are a simulation projected from this car.

Pod Docking Bay[]

The upper walls of the car are lined with docking stations for Passenger Transportation Pods when they are not being used to move passengers, either to recharge or undergo repair if damaged. The pods line the wall vertically, with the side where the resting passenger's head would be facing up.

Passenger Farm[]

Below the docking bay is a room covered below in a murky white fluid. When passengers board the train, they are put to sleep and suspended just below the surface of the fluid while tiny robots resembling One-One scan their memories and convert them to film.

Once a complete strip of film has been made, a Porter collects the film and comprises it in a Memory Tape with the passenger's name. The passenger is then released from the farm area and then sent through a suspended network of fluid streams to the bottom level of the car.

Memory-Watching Machine[]

The fluid streams flowing from the passenger farm lead down into a large room with a computer terminal on the far end, with the streams converging at a small pool in front of the terminal. When a passenger is carried through a stream to the pool, the Porters in the room will insert the tape into the terminal to view its contents. Then a Porter holds up the sleeping passenger's right hand, palm up, and a towering machine in the ceiling lowers a green-tipped laser pen to graft a number into their palm.

After the number is assigned, a pod descends from the ceiling to scoop the passenger inside and then drain out the fluid through pores on the casing. The pool drains before opening a hatchway for the pod to exit the car through, afterwards closing and filling back up again to take the next passenger.
