Stickburg Stickville & Sticktropolis Railway





History
The Stickburg Stickville & Sticktropolis Railway is a Narrow Gauge (3 Foot) Railroad System Running Between Sticktropolis, the capital of The Sticklands to it's Northernmost city, Graphite Flats. it functions essentially as a trunk line, bringing Materials from Sticktropolis North to Stickburg and Graphite Flats. it was Chartered by Governor Horace Edward McStickley in 1907 with the intent of expanding the economy of his country. The Road reached the city of Sticktropolis in 1915. it reached Stickburg in 1916 and, a year later, inaugurated their crack passenger train, The Ticonderogan. The Railroad built an extension to Graphite Flats in 1920. The Railroad also built a branch line along the Pencil Pointe Peninsula to the Graphite Motors Proving Grounds which was built at the end of the peninsula. in 1983 the Railroad tore up the branch line when Graphite Motors shut the plant down, but it was recently rebuilt and reactivated as rail link to a new military base owned by the Codrasan Empire. The Railroad also owns several spur lines on the Docks of Sticktropolis. Today, The Graphite Road's Tracks cover the eastern seaboard of The Sticklands, and provides a very important link between the Country's Three major cities.

Impact on The Country
The S.S.&.S. has helped the development and colonization of The Sticklands as we know it. Sticktropolis, the nation's Largest City, is still connected to the outside world exclusively by The Railroad. The railroad also runs "Hydro Trains", which haul thousands of Gallons of Freshwater to Stickburg and Graphite Flats, where they can be sent inland to Cities which are too far from reliable water sources. The Railroad is still the Lifeline of The Sticklands, and will continue to serve its duty as it has for over a century.
