One of the final acts of building the [[Railway (Guide)|Great Hellbound Railway]] is giving the tracklayers their own city.

Mechanically, it is [[The City of the Tracklayers|its own location]], available from the Railway Station where it's located.
This location has fixed storylets that are rarely used, and is mainly driven by opportunity cards.

This guide will cover the profit-making actions that are available in the City.


== Decisions ==

In the process of arranging the founding of the city, you will decide several of its aspects, which primarily change the stats required for some of the city's opportunity cards. Once the city is complete, {{IL|Hinterland City - Founding Body}} and {{IL|New-Minted Currency}} can only be changed by paying {{FontFate}}, while {{IL|Leader of the Tracklayers}}, {{IL|Hinterland City - Chosen Site}}, and {{IL|Hinterland City - Official Alignment}} can be changed through gameplay.

These decisions also affect the opportunity cards showing up in the City. (There is also a card affected by decisions outside the city, and a card '''added''' with a direct rail link. These are in the table too for your convenience.)

'''Note that the numbers in the table below refer to the value needed to succeed with 100% certainty, not the usual difficulty ratings in the wiki.'''

== Location ==

The location of the City of the Tracklayers is initially determined via [[Take the vote and declare Victory in the matter of locating the TLU city|board meeting]] right before finishing the railway line.

You can change the city location after the fact by playing the [[Hauling the City Out]] storylet, which costs:

* {{IL|Much-Needed Gap|1x}}, best obtained from [[Khaganian Intrigue (Guide)|Intrigues in the Khanate]]
* {{IL|Vitreous Almanac|5x}}, see [[Cartography Grinding (Guide)#Vitreous_Almanac]] for possible sources
* All your current {{IL|Hinterland Efficiency}}

The actual movement is based on the results of a combined {{IL|Persuasive}} and {{IL|Artisan of the Red Science}} check. If you succeed, it moves the City closer to Hell / Marigold Station (if possible); failure moves it further away from Hell and towards Ealing Gardens. If you want a certain failure, equipping a {{IL|Weasel of Woe}} is a good idea.

Moving the city also gives you {{IL|The City Waning|10 CP}}, {{IL|Tracklayers' Displeasure|5 CP}} and {{IL|Wounds}}.

Since rebuilding {{IL|Hinterland Efficiency}} costs quite a few actions, it is advisable to do all the moving fairly close together, and only rebuild your Efficiency afterwards.

== An Aside about Habituation ==
Every action spent in the City raises {{IL|Habituated to the Hinterland}} by one change point. There is no way to speed this process up, nor to slow it down. Higher levels of Habituation unlock some particularly profitable cards, as well as some decent options on old cards; notably, among other things, the quality gates several stages in the Gray Man storyline. 

There's not much else to say about it, though. If you're invested enough in the Tracklayer's City, you ''will'' inevitably raise Habituation until you've unlocked everything, and if you haven't, your only choice to do anything about that is to keep on keeping on just the same as if you had.

== Economy ==

The "currency" of the Tracklayers' City is {{IL|Hinterland Prosperity}}, valued the same as 1 {{IL|Penny}}.

You can gain and spend Hinterland Prosperity by playing cards, there are no fixed storylets to cash it out, nor is there a separate exchange (the Bazaar tab is the same as in the Hinterlands).

Many of the opportunity cards have an option that, on success, give you 200 or 220 + {{IL|Hinterland Efficiency}} points of {{IL|Hinterland Prosperity}}. Most options that have the higher payout require a double check of one of the base stats ({{IL|Watchful}}, {{IL|Persuasive}}, {{IL|Dangerous}}, {{IL|Shadowy}}) plus one of the [[Advanced Skills (Guide)|advanced skills]].

{{IL|Hinterland Efficiency}} starts at 0 and is capped to 300. You can raise it by first raising {{IL|Developing...}} to 5, and then playing [[A Project Concludes]] that resets it, and raises {{IL|Hinterland Efficiency}} by 50. You can raise {{IL|Developing...}} by playing [[Matters of Infrastructure]] (unlock) and then [[Developing Infrastructure]].

=== Cashing Out Hinterland Prosperity ===

You need to play cards to exchange Hinterland Prosperity for other items. Some of these cards only become visible with a certain amount of Hinterland Prosperity.

=== Analysis ===

Once you've raised {{IL|Hinterland Efficiency}} to its maximum of 300, most opportunity cards offer a 5 or 5.2 EPA option. For several of the items that can be obtained for {{IL|Hinterland Prosperity}}, this is the most action-efficient source. There are also a few options (like [[Landscape in Moonlight]] and [[A visitor for (Leader of the Tracklayers)]]) that pay out an additional 0.3{{E}} in items.

If you turn your {{IL|Hinterland Prosperity|Appearance=Prosperity}} into {{IL|Captivating Ballad|Appearance=Captivating Ballads}} and then sell them at the [[The Rat Market (Guide)|Rat Market]]; this raises the efficiency to somewhere between 5.86 and 6.06 EPA, depending on how many 5 and 5.2 EPA actions you manage to play. This comes with the limitation of only being able to sell to the Rat Market at some weekends and the reducing Rat Market price bonus as your sales increase.

Another payout option is to go through {{IL|Bottle of Fourth City Airag: Year of the Tortoise}}. This is a remarkably good source of {{IL|Vial of Tears of the Bazaar}} via [[A Presumptuous Little Opportunity]] and is useful for those aiming for a long-lived [[Noman Tattoo (Guide)|Noman]].

=== Profit Through Board Meetings ===

If you have

* {{IL|Involved in a Railway Venture|140}}, that is, you have built the spur line to the City of the Tracklayers
* {{IL|Charter of the Great Hellbound Railway|exactly 1}}, that is, Wealth-seeking (which you can change through a board meeting)
* High {{IL|A Player of Chess}} (15 for 100% success rate, still worth playing at 14)

then playing the option [[Reckon with the wealth-seeking charter of the GHR]] of the card [[Troubled Times Recur]] not only gives you up to 520 points of {{IL|Hinterland Prosperity}}, but also decreases {{IL|In Corporate Debt}} by one and sometimes even two points.

With this setup, you can once a week convene [[Railway Board (Guide)|a Board Meeting]], [[Vote a dividend to the shareholders]] twice, and then gradually reduce {{IL|In Corporate Debt}} through the above-mentioned option. This way, there is no need to juggle board members to reduce corporate debt, raising the efficiency of the dividends option and reducing actions spent in the board meeting. 

With maxed out {{IL|Train Luxuries}}, you get for each dividend:

* {{IL|Moon-Pearl|4800x}}, worth 48 {{E}}
* {{IL|Magnificent Diamond|2x}}, worth 25 {{E}}
* {{IL|Bottle of Broken Giant 1844|2x}}, worth 5 {{E}}
* {{IL|In Corporate Debt}}: 5 CP for the first, 7 CP for the second dividend

so a total of 78 {{E}} per dividend, or 156 {{E}} for two dividends.

On a minimal board you'll spend one action proposing the dividend, at least four actions convincing your members, and one to accept the final vote. Two times for two dividends makes 12 or more actions. This part alone is up to 13 EPA. Of course, you cannot just add the profits and actions you spend on the [[Troubled Times Recur]] card, because you'll have to draw and play many cards to get your nearly 12 draws of this card to wipe out your corporate debt. Let's just say that if you want to spend lots of time in the City of the Tracklayers and have high {{IL|A Player of Chess}}, this scheme gives some nice extra boost to profits once a week.

Speaking of high {{IL|A Player of Chess}}, if you play [[Subvert the Revolution]] often enough to wipe out all revolutionary alignment of your city, it makes the Chess check easier by two points, so you "only" need {{IL|A Player of Chess|13}} for 100% success rate.


=== Betraying the Tracklayer's City ===
There are actually three more cashouts available for {{IL|Hinterland Prosperity|Appearance=Prosperity}}: [[Betray the city to (criminal affiliates)]], [[Betray the city to the Constables]], and [[Allow Hell its hour]]. In addition to their normal payouts, each of these grants favours from the respective group, and raises your {{IL|Infiltrator of the Tracklayer City}} by 1, but destroys ''all'' the {{IL|Hinterland Efficiency}} you have built up. Two of them also produce a hefty sum of {{IL|The City Waning}}, while the third forcibly yanks your city all the way to Marigold. Given all this, at first blush, these options seem ''catastrophically'' bad.

There are two factors worth considering, however. First, these payouts cash out an arbitrary amount of Prosperity at once, at-value, whereas the costs they incur are entirely fixed and can be amortized across an entire 'batch'. Second, the specific items these options cash out into ({{IL|Journal of Infamy}}, {{IL|Dubious Testimony}}, and {{IL|Infernal Contract}}) cannot be ground anywhere near 5 EPA, with the current best grinds for them being in the ballpark of 2.5-3.5 EPA.

The fixed costs are not '''negligible'''; grinding enough Prosperity in one go for betrayal to be an amortized 5 EPA is highly unrealistic to expect. However, just grinding {{IL|Hinterland Efficiency}} all the way back up to the cap gives about 3.5 EPA in Prosperity on average, and anything past that point asymptotically improves one's efficiency. In other words, if one requires truly industrial quantities of any of those three very specific cashouts for whichever reason, betrayal is remarkably competitive as an option.

==Communing==
The Tracklayer's City also brings the opportunity to commune with three chthonic entities; the TLU City, the Creditor, and London. The former two are accessible in the City, but London is (obviously) in London, specifically {{IL|Your Activities}}. Each communion must be carried out at least once as part of the City storyline, but can be repeated even after the storyline is over for profit. Repeated communions with the TLU City and the Creditor cost {{IL|Memory of a Much Lesser Self|2 x}}.

Each of the three communions revolves around various advanced skill checks to raise {{IL|The Mind's Ascent}}, with each offering different checks when you have {{IL|The Mind's Ascent|}} 1, 2 and 3; once this reaches 4 the mind of the chthonic entity can be entered, with the reward being granted on leaving the mind. Failures on these checks grant {{IL|Nightmares|+2 CP}}, whereas successes grant {{IL|The Mind's Ascent|+1 CP}}.
