History

MaltonRail-Poster1.jpg
Malton Rail, or "Malton Railway" as it was originally known as until the name was re-branded in 1976, was first established in 1903 by the Malton City Council through a deal arranged with the National Railway Association (or, the NRA) and United National Investment Company of Eastern Financers (or, UNICEF). With the power of the NRA and the financial backing of UNICEF, two forces best not opposed, the city's main railway tracks, the NorthSouth Line and the EastWest Line, were constructed by November 1906. Of course construction did not end with these two major lines, but rather continued to expand as more and more railway stations were constructed in every one of the city's suburbs. By 1918 the railway had completed construction of the Great Western Line which ran through all the suburbs between Starlingtown and Owsleybank, providing swifter transport between east and west Malton as the earlier EastWest Line was used primarily to connect with the NorthSouth Line and thus provide inter-city transportation. It was not long before the NRA's trains were soon on track and providing both public and private transportation throughout Malton.

By 1930 the number of Malton's railway stations had nearly doubled, tripling in 1958, and quadrupling in 1976, as the city was considered one of the most public transport conscious city's in the entire country with some suburbs having as many as 5 to 6 stations all within a 10 block area. Prior to the "Malton Incident" the only suburbs that did not possess even a single railway station were Shearbank, West Boundwood, and Stanbury Village, each for their own reasons.

To this day survivors still dream of the day that the trains will once again run, perhaps allowing free and safe travel through zombie-infested Malton.
