619 A Tale of Vengence

"We've thought about using the law to solve this, but the United Pacific Railroad Company is very powerful. With only one sentence, they decide if they would build the railways for your towns. And the towns with railways usually develop faster than other towns that don't have one. Following that, there would be more immigrants moving in, thus, increasing the production of goods. It would be hard for us to send those goods to other towns without the system. We were in a small town with less than 50 people at the time. Everyone was hoping that a track would pass the town and make our lives easier. Reuben obviously knew about this, so he blackmailed the town's sheriff into concealing his crime."
