Daniel and I sped down the mainline, passing crash after crash under the seemingly scarlet sky. All the while Edward and the Fat Hat following closely behind. Through the stations we thundered, the switch to the Brendam branch approached rapidly, "STAY ON THE MAIN LINE, GO ANYWHERE, HURRY! HURRY!" I cried. Daniel obliged, we shot passed the branch. Rocketed up Gordon's hill, and rattled through Maron station. Work crews were still trying to heal the scar I'd left behind. The track then made several winding turns, I'd never gone passed Maron and thus didn't know what lay beyond. The track split up ahead, "which way?" Called Dan, for once, I didn't know, "LEFT'' I guessed. We shot up the left track, it narrowed to a single track meaning this was a branch line. Shit we're really cornered now, just need to calm down and think of a way out of this. Old creaky trees flew by, an old station, a level crossing, a viaduct. In the distance we could see a strange looking building. It looked to be out of pure stone, the walls surrounded the yards so we couldn't see inside. There was a sign at the front, barely readable, but I had heard of such a place before, I didn't need to read the sign to know where we were. "Dan stop, STOP!" I called, 

"They're still after us. If we don't escape now its game over." He replied,

"No Dan you don't get it, THAT'S THE SMELTERS YARD."
