The proposed line would traverse Mexico to Central America, the Andes, and into Bolivia, with branches reaching Caracas Quito and other ports, totaling about 10,228 miles from New York to Buenos Aires, and would cost about 100,000 a year in labor.

Imprisoned Reflections and Lost Family in Reyntlan Tale
A fragmented recollection from the Reyntlan Courier recounts fifteen years in confinement, a vanished mirror of self, and the devastation of family. The narrator, once strong, sees a hollowed man in the glass as his wife and child suffer and perish, while wartime memory and a grim procession of deprivation haunt the survivor. The text shifts to an abrupt local ad for the American Steam Laundry on West Seventh Street.
