The road leading to the hotel where Ezra and Lucy would be staying was as busy as ever.
Their Royal Phantom Rolls moved along the street, passing rows of buildings and other Steam Vehicles travelling in both directions.
The sound of engines filled the air, mixing with the voices of pedestrians and the occasional call of a street vendor.
Steam rose from several vehicles, drifting above the road before fading into the air.
There were plenty of Steam Vehicles on the streets of Solcrest, but the number of ordinary Steam Carriages, Noble Steam Carriages, and Royal Steam Carriages was noticeably lower than that of other models.
The streets had changed.
Even at the airport, where many Cab Steam Carriages used to wait for passengers, a new type of vehicle could now be seen.
These vehicles had been produced by The Eclipse, using Ezra's vehicle ideology to develop a Steam Vehicle designed specifically for pick-up services.
They were different from the usual carriages.
