Chapter 31: Invitation to New York

Another week has passed since Wanderbilt and Moses arrived at the Axelsen & Nielsen Air Brake Company headquarters. They landed a contract worth twenty-five million dollars to retrofit all their passenger and freight trains with an air brake system and locomotive draft gear. Not only that, but the company is also responsible for designing railway signaling and interlocking for their existing railways to make sure that no collision-related accidents ever happen on Wanderbilt tracks.

In the main office, Poul and Jonathan were reading a newspaper while smoking their tobacco. Wanderbilt released a statement about the accident and stated that he deeply regretted the incident and swore to the public that he'll make his train transportation safe for everyone. Not only for everyone but for the goods it is carrying as well.
