“The Chesterton residents don’t know exactly what the wireways were, Carrcassonnee. They understand it was some kind of transporation device, and probably for those nuts and washes still found on it north of Chesterton North.”
Carr.:
North North.
bb:
Yeah. But all that *predates* the coming of the train track and the toy avatars. *Metallic* beings lived here before.
Carr.:
The train track is metal. Perhaps the train[ track] knows.
bb:
It does did parallel Wireway 61 in several places, especially in a section between Chesterton North and South where the brown pipe is.
Carr.:
Thank you. Let me put on my reading spectacle.
bb:
Amazing Carrcassonnee. Didn’t know you had one of those.
Carr.:
When have you seen me read anything?
bb:
Never, I suppose.
Carr. (studying):
Ah, yes. And that’s where the hole formed as well?
bb:
Yes.
Carr.:
Well there you are.
bb:
Hmm. I wonder how long I should leave up the toys?
Carr.:
I think[ the washers and nuts] were robots. They might have created something similar in Whitehead Crossroads.
bb. (correcting):
Crossing. How?
Carr.:
2989 comes to mind. Spider knows.
