Description

A video of the underwhelming last day of the Escape.

Once the "last stop" of Malton's extensive subway and train system, Ellicott Place Railway Station was also a transfer point to the national railway system. Here both people and goods were once shipped in and out via high speed rail to anywhere in the country. It wasn't long after the Malton Incident that Ellicott Place began serving as the entrance to the Southern Cross HQ, where elements of the DHPD were basing a number of secretive operations. Understandably some civilians were surprised to learn that the DHPD members stationed at the railway station were apparently receiving fresh supplies somehow from outside Malton's quarantine zone. Needless to say local civilians were happy, if not naturally suspicious, of the supplies. Regardless of their source most survivors agreed that it was better to avoid asking too many questions than risk jeopardizing their chances of acquiring new supplies.

See the last few days of the Escape.

This empty railroad station was once a part of the city's now extinct Malton Rail system.

Current Events

April/May 2010 - Ellicott Place Railway Station was the designated point of exit for members of Escape, a group dedicated to attempting to breaking through the border and escape Malton. The breakout was planned for June 1, 2010, but every escape point has been destroyed.

August 21st, 2007 - The Drama Club staged a performance of "Army of Darkness" at Ellicott Place Railway Station as part of their Border Tour of Malton. The group is traveling clockwise around the border suburbs of Malton with one show in each suburb. Today they performed for the lone zombie outside the station as there was no one inside to see the show. See their group page for performing groups and schedules.
