By Train

The Philippine National Railways has one train station in Calamba City that is now defunct.Eventually, some rails of the PNR are topped with asphalt and cement and many slum areas sprung around the rails.

By Ferry

Boats are also rare in the city but it also serves as a major form of transportation in coastal barangays.A new resort built on a nearby island, named Wonder Island Resort, has a boat terminal in Barangay Palingon that takes visitors to this wonderful resort that provides a scenic view of Laguna de Bay.

By Bus

Buses are also used as a major source of transportation, with bus companies such as Calamba Megatrans, Inc., HM Liner, Inc., Saint Rose (including Giomabicon Transit), Green Star and HM Transport, Inc., which actually originated from Sta. Cruz, Laguna.Few of the Calamba-based buses are air-conditioned like HM Transport buses.The only bus routes open in Calamba City are the following: Calamba - Buendia - Taft - Lawton PGH UN LRT (with drop-off at bus stop located in Barangay Paciano Rizal), Cubao - Calamba - College (UPLB) - Sta. Cruz and Calamba - Alabang Metropolis (although this can be connected to the Lawton route).
