In the vibrant and whimsical world of Discworld, the arrival of steam power sends ripples through society, transforming an already colorful tapestry of eccentric characters and adventures. At the heart of this transformation is Moist von Lipwig, who finds himself entwined in the ambitious plans to build a railway that promises to connect distant lands and change the landscape of transportation forever. With his usual charm and cunning, he must navigate the challenges that come with progress, including a host of quirky new characters and the ever-looming threat of bureaucratic mischief.

As steam trains begin to chug through Discworld, they bring a wave of both excitement and chaos.
