This story is a sequel to The Guild of Equestrian Railwaymen: Dual bands of steel through the hills
In the steep mountains of Northern Equestria, there is a railway through the hills that found itself in a bind. They needed a machine with more grunt and power than had ever been created in history before. Turning to a genius (or madpony) of steel and steam to help with this issue. They asked him to create a machine capable of satisfying their needs. What they were delivery, was a monster the likes of which had never been seen before.
Wasn't expecting an origin story longer then any individual chapter of the main story for these things. Incredibly fun read and it was great seeing more design stuff being done.

Yeaaaah, I didn't originally plan for this story to end up being as long as it is, but I had a lot to say about the HG-10's so this was where I ended up. Glad you had fun with it though!
