Running across Equestria, a vast network of pipes transfers soup from the mines out West to hungry ponies on the East Coast. Few ponies sitting down to a bowl of fresh cazuela ever think about the soup pipeline.

For Langy, it’s her job. It’s her life.

The soup must flow.

Now with an audio reading by Wonder Gala (on Soundcloud)

Railways are a dangerous and deadly workplace of steel on steel. The machines used on them are unforgiving and demand respect if injury is to be prevented. Often times it is the ones who treat their engines as living things that make it through their career without incident. But when the owners of a railway loose that respect, it can rub off on the employees, and that can easily lead to tragedy. Because of this, a number of stallions created a group that would eventually spread around Equestrian, known as The Guild of Equestrian Railwaymen. Their main goal was to make keep that respect railways deserve alive.
This is a story of when that respect is still ungiven, and an owner doesn't learn from their mistakes.

The Equestrian Navy had always protected those who ventured onto the deep, but when it came to fighting, they were woefully unprepared. With the loss of so many of the EN ships, and the new found enemy of the Changelings, Princess Celestia initiated the Royal Armed Forces Act, part of which called for a massive build-up of the navy from one of wood and canvas to that of a steel and steam. This is the story of the Schornhorse, the First True Battleship of the Royal Equestrian Navy.

If bureaucracy is the wheels of a nation, then proper scheduling is the grease and oil.
When it is ignored, things either grind to a halt... or someone gets chewed up in the gears.

Years ago, Rainbow Dash achieved her lifelong dream of becoming a Wonderbolt. She'd gone through the academy, been a staple of the main lineup and, eventually, earned the rank of Captain.

At 43 years of age, it's time for Rainbow to leave that dream behind, but not before she can dazzle the ponies of Cloudsdale one last time.
