Hello,
We already have an automotive theme park. We are PMT (Postmodern Technology) so this technology would be more for entertainment and family vacations than anything else. We would like a mockup done of a Thomas the Tank Engine style station and short track built for us. Main steam tank engine, 4 passenger cars, and a caboose. It would be on a small scenic island in the Pacific.

Regards,

Amara Cruon, Trade Minister to the Commonalitarianism

P.S. Are you capable of producing a high grade advanced maglev monorail system using composite materials and bioplastics. We will provide the materials.

When our Electro-Motive Division goes international (ooc: later tonight), contact them about building a maglev monorail system. It shouldn't be a problem, but that is their department.

Asbena inquires about the deliverablity of the trains. Is this pre-constructed trains or will they have to be shipped via boat to our off-shore colony?

Asbena,
Our products are manufactured in our own factories. As we are an island nation (OOC: about the size of Australia), we have a fleet of transport ships to bring purchased locomotives to our customers. You order, we deliver!

Does your company also produce cargo cars? We have a great need to ship vast amounts of material that can only be done by large frieght trains.

We shall purchase when the cars are able to be sold, or does the Corperation offer a discount at the current time?

Pythogria,
We would be glad to sell your trains. Please TG the specs to us so we can supply them to our Electro-Motive Division.


Asbena,
No current discounts are available.

(ooc: I'll have the storefront up hopefully tonight. working on the electro-motive division right now.)

OOC: I am trying to figure out the type of logistics I'd need to keep them running and can only figure that I would need upwards of 5,000 trains or more... what would that end up as for your production facilities?
