Offices of the Tracklayer's Union: Evenlode Branch
A player-created Guide is available for this content: Railway Station Developments (Guide) |
Spoiler warning! This page contains details about Fallen London Actions. |
The office out here is small and cramped compared with the ones closer to London. Proximity with the Magistracy building makes it look even smaller.
