Greenhouse

The newest carriage is a greenhouse.

The ceiling is a dome shape, a single metal beam runs from one end to another, mounted on this beam are large bright lights.

The aisle of grass runs down the middle, from one door to the next. Stone paths branch off around raised beds of soil. Nothing is growing yet but there are crates in which passengers can find a whole host of seeds and bulbs for various flowers.

Plenty for passengers with green fingers to do! Plant some seeds, tend to those they have planted already. Chase away people who have no idea what they are doing! Remind them they have to take the seeds out of the packet first!

If planting is a new thing then the ICP has some handy gardening tips or they can always ask their fellow Voidtreckers!

Sports Balls

For those who prefer their hobbies much more energetic then the gym's cupboard is full of balls. Balls for every sport they can imagine! The space is long and narrow which means a little bit of adapting but there is plenty of fun to be had. Start a game of football, or basket ball.

Make some new friends and get some friendly rivalry going!

Monkey Madness!

It's a strange mission to be sure but the Voidtreckers have been called to help a huge zoo tackle a problem. Every monkey enclosure has been broken open and the creatures have gotten out and into the city, where they are causing mayhem.

Team One

Though the monkeys don't pose much threat to human life they cause quite a big of damage. Team one is to try and get as many businesses and homes safe as possible. Bring things indoors, reinforce doors and windows. Warn those in the city of the incoming horde!

Team Two

Round up the monkeys! The aim is to do this without harming and luckily they have some capture devices, that can be thrown to spring straps around a creature. Bribing them is also encouraged. The city has prepared vans for the creatures to be lured or taken to. Careful though, these monkeys are cunning and mischievous and clever enough to steal the capture devices and throw them back at the Voidtreckers! Who is catching who?

Team Three

Back in the zoo there is plenty to do. First and foremost the enclosures need fixing and reinforced. Also an investigation is underway to figure out what happened and who is responsible. If DIY or investigating work is not in a passengers skill set then there are still many other animals that need fed and cleaned!

Reward time!

Soon all the monkeys are back in their proper homes and the city put back to rights! As a thank you the zoo is handing out free ice cream and a free pass to enjoy the zoo for the day.

Have fun!

Greenhouse
The scent of earth-filled Matt's nose, snapping him out of his daze. He had been trying so hard to keep from thinking that Matt hadn't been paying attention to where he was wandering. The muddy smell drew him back into the present, away from memories of anger, pain, and blood. Dirt was easier, simpler. A well stock bar would have been better, but a greenhouse on a train was strange enough to distract him.

He ran his hand over the bags of potting soil and sifted through the packages of seeds. They were a standard mix of perennials and vegetables. He paused on a package of pumpkin seeds and smiled. "I guess it's not too early for Halloween."

"By all accounts it's either February or March, so yes--it's too bloody early for Halloween." There's a very small and very bored-looking child wandering through the new greenhouse, arms crossed over his chest. "But who the hell knows."

There's a robot of average human height trying not to fall face-forward into the dirt, Matt. He was interested in what the man was doing, however - and amused by his remark.

"While this place's calendar is obscure, I suspect the answer is still only yes if you consider Halloween a state of mind, like some people do," Webmind answered.

"Perhaps, in a place divorced from regular seasons, however, it won't matter so much what holiday it supposedly is."

Apologies for the icons; he's getting some new ones sketched as we speak.
