Ah, locomotives everywhere, plying the skies - for it would perhaps be ill-omened to call them the heavens. It is quite amusing that I find myself in control of one of these curious locomotives, and doubly so that I find it belongs to the Urchin Baron; the no longer young man did a fine job in turning the Company into something far more lucrative and with a far greater reach than could have been imagined.

I myself largely spent my time working under the Urchin's aegis, the both of us quite amused at this turn of events and willing to see how it played out; he knew I would not take the Company from him, that I had little enough interest. Instead I was more than pleased to instigate certain changes to see the Company grow, to see its competitors strangled out of the market so that a near-monopoly could be gained.

The Urchin Baron also enjoyed the most delicious cider, from my understanding; it is little surprise to me that he was able to locate an appropriate vintage and enjoy it. I can but wish him the best in his adventures to come, but my place is not here, so on I shall move.

The Correspondence certainly is interesting though...
