[RFC] Black Aeronaut Technologies - Special Orders for Galaxy Railways

[Black Aeronaut]

It was a natural thing when you look at it in retrospect.  Benjamin is many things, and one of the least well known ones is that he's a trainspotter.  No, not in the sense you're probably thinking.  Benjamin studied the ways and lifestyles of the railroaders of Old Earth - the United States of America in particular.  (We dare you to ask him about the lifestyles of railroad workers at the turn of the 20th Century - he'll go on about the romance and hardships.)  And once Gina whispered this fact into Maetel's ear she knew exactly where to go.
Therefore, Black Aeronaut was a natural choice for Galaxy Railways to contract for the construction of a new fleet of locomotives.  Of course, Maetel insisted they each have a unique look and be steam-powered, and Benjamin honestly had no problem with that.  What she got, though... well, let's just say she should have expected it.  It is Benjamin Rhodes we're talking about here, and if he does one thing really good it's make things go fast... and that's just while they're sitting still.

If Benjamin was looking to put some of the awe and wonder back into space travel and rail travel alike, then we'd definitely say that he's succeed at that.
