| IZ_OZ_PCT_EXT.dat | MTC TAZ 1454 to Ala-CC BCM 6596 Zone Transformation Key, contains how the percent of trips from the 1454 TAZ system is to be reprojected to the BCM TAZ system. Used in the Nonresident model. | landuse\ | FixedDemand | |
| transit.lin | Year-specific Transit Line file | trn\ | Transit Network | |
| transit_dummy.lin | trnbuild requires that we read in some transit lines, though we're building access links to funnel nodes, so no reading of lines are necessary. a dummy read is entered here to placate trnbuild. | trn\ | Transit Network | |
| vehtype.pts | contains vehicle types, seating capacity, load distribution factor by number for ferry system, BART, bus etc. Used in the update_transit_line_file.py script to create transitPrefixToVehicle.csv file | trn\ | Transit Network | |
| xfare.far | contains transfer fares | trn\ | Transit Network | |
