You're in the past, right? Is there anything coming up that you're excited for?
I'm excited for cars! Or uh, mon-less carriages. Maybe not the thing you were expecting from the owner of a railway, but these first cars are really only good intracity anyways.
I've met with the folks working on a prototype steam car, trying to convince them to have it free steaming so they're not stuck waiting to cool down once all the steam is generated.
Personally, I'm waiting for EVs to hit the market in a few years.

Although downloading every movement titled "Allegro con Fuoco" was a choice.
Not one I disagree with, but it was a choice considering that I did specify the composer.
I am ever thankful that the anon who sent this phone pre-loaded a bunch of music to it.

According to this chart I have a relaxed personality. But what do y'all think.

//this is what the bridge over this tiny creek will look like, before the berm is filled.

Ah shit. There's a creek in the way.
Umm... Well I guess we're going to have to bridge it. The valley it's in is pretty wide, too.

Being at that transition time between money being real and money not being real is great. There's like, almost no regulations at all so everything I'm doing is legal.

//this is heavily based on the Chicago-New York Airline Railway, here White Forest is my stand in for Laporte, Indiana.
I suppose I should explain. The Castelia-Undella Airline Railway is my company, our plan is to link Castelia City to the emerging resort town of Undella by way of the straightest route possible.
Currently, we have 7 miles of track south of the White Forest Logging Camp because that was the first charter we could get.

So! Does anyone here want to invest in my railway? I am suddenly in need of the funds for purchasing a new engine.
I'll sell you the stocks directly, so no need to go through the market.
Presumably they're worth more in the future so really you're getting quite the deal here. $100 each.
Oh, the phone is connecting again?
And just when the sky went back to normal, too.
At least a bit of good happened today.

When I get back to Castelia, it's time to cash in "Dr. Wells'" life insurance policy I think.
I think I lost them. Damn shame about my cart though.
Not gonna be able to show my face in Accumula Town for a while.

Are you okay?
[A photo]
It's extremely blurred by motion, but the photo is being taken rear-view from the position of riding a Sawsbuck.
In the distance are several other pokémon chasing after, ranged Moves aimed towards the camera.

[a video]
The camera is pointed oddly back and to the left of the main subject of the video, likely the Rotom starting a recording accidentally while propped against a box.
"Dr Wells" is pulling out every trick in the book to make a sale, giving promises of quality and efficiency. As he takes the customer's money in exchange for a jar of salve, his gaze drifts to the side, eyes widening slightly.
"Thank you for the purchase, kind miss. Your Munna should feel better in no time," as he speaks, he slips the cashbox into his bag. "Now I'm sorry, but I must close up shop-"
"YOU!" Wells flinches at the yelling. "You said yer medicines would heal my pardner!"
"And it should- should heal battle-related injuries. Scrapes, bites, burns, that sort -" Dr. Wells gets pulled over the table.
"WELL IT DON'T! I oughta teach you a lesson..." The man shouts.
Wells is thrown back, and then the cart he was selling out of gets smashed by a Gurdurr wielding a twisted and bent cast iron pillar. Potion, glass, wood, and the phone get flung everywhere, the phone eventually resting facing skywards.
Humus the Skiddo leaps over the phone to come to the defence of his trainer. The recording ends as Wells scoops up the phone.

How did you get your money at the start?
I first started out in this World by getting a job as a stevedore at the Castelia Port. Let me tell you, nicking your share of imports is much easier before the invention of containerization.
