Background

The Grand Western Station is the hub of all transport in the city. The station was originally named after the gnome engineer who pioneered the idea of an inter-connected rail system, Grun Woostrun, but over time has become better known as the Grand Western, in order to sound a bit fancier to tourists and visiting nobles.

The party have had a tip off that one of the larger crime syndicates in the city have been smuggling in contraband on the inbound trains, but so far have little idea of which train or how. They are not even entirely sure what the contraband is, but the city constabulary have posted a large bounty for any information or evidence that could lead to the arrest of the syndicates leaders, so it might be worth following up with a stake out to keep an eye open for suspicious activity.

Unbeknownst to them another group has received the same information and is also watching the station, and they are becoming more and more interested in the mismatched band who seem to be hiding in the shadows and making notes of all of the incoming and outgoing trains and their cargo.
