Transport at Troynovant:
zooming or trundling along via vehicles
such as ships, autos, trains,
aircraft, & spacecraft,
with some industrial & cultural allies;
listed by Title
Note that works involving only or mostly animal, mental, or temporal transport, or forays afoot, generally are not listed here. Vehicular transport suffuses modern culture from oxcarts and chariots and wagon trains, through the Age of Sail and the Age of Steam. Many works of fiction are more or less dependent on transport to keep the plot moving, as are history and biography to shunt the people into or between adventures: thus our inclusion threshold must be rather arbitrary.

King Henry:
My lords ambassadors, your several suits
Have been considered and debated on.Your purpose is both good and reasonable,
And therefore are we certainly resolved
To draw conditions of a friendly peace,
Which by my lord of Winchester we mean
Shall be transported presently to France.William Shakespeare
