Basic Info:

  • Train station. No trains are running.
  • Among the internal descriptions found in Railway Stations:
    • "Its platforms are empty, its departure boards blank, all trains having left the city during the evacuation."
    • "…a fire-damaged white-stone building surrounded by lawns. Behind railings, you can see railway tracks disappearing into the surrounding city."
  • This building can be barricaded normally.

Upon entering the station, you walk up the stairs leading towards the platform. As you do so, movement on a nearby monitor catches your eye... You see from the monitor, an ominous trolley slowly pull up to the platform, stop, then completely shut off.

Description

Patrol Sighting 02/05/2009: I witnessed a strange two car trolley pull up to the platform. It bares a familiar Umbrella Corporation marking Umbrella Corp.gif that I have seen before so I am sure it belongs to them. I can't believe they have their own train! Let alone one that operates! I mean... just how the hell? I went up to the platform and examined it cautiously. Couldn't find any means of turning on the power or gaining access to the train except on the side doors where there is an obvious card reader. It undoubtedly leads into their headquarters in Handley Towers, that I am sure. Wish I could figure out how to hot wire this thing or get a card, definitely a safer way to get around.

Patrol Sighting 02/24/2009: After searching for days around Umbrella Corporation's compounds and hang outs, I have given up on trying to locate this supposed access card that activates the trolley here. However upon my return to the station platform I noticed a figure in the conductor's office. I drew my rifle and approached. I was had! A rouse to set me up! I quivered in fear as I felt cold steel press into the back of my neck. Damn, "Those deranged mother-fuckers did this just to fill their sick lust for murder." I thought. The person behind me started to speak and ordered me to drop my rifle, I did so. They spoke calm and collected, "What are you doing with my things?" he asked. I hesitated and told him that I was only a passer by. The feeling of steel was released from neck. "Oh sorry I didn't notice your arm patch! The name's Beau. I am actually one of the liasons from Umbrella sent to talk with the SWA. Ha! Don't tell them I almost shot you, I don't think that would go over so well during the talks."

Charming fellow. We spoke for a few and he explained that he had gone off to take a piss, came back and thought I was trying to steal his things, though he wouldn't go into detail what he had. Understandable! He asked that I would be on my way since the platform wasn't particularly as safe as some of the surrounding structures. We parted way and wouldn't you know it, I spotted that trolley moving down the rails towards Handley! That bastard! I knew it! No wonder he acted so protective. One day I'll come back and get to ride that trolley, even if I have to sign up as a member myself!
