The Ren's Bay branch of the metro that links up both sides of the major port at the north of Helnikan Island, home to NS GHQ, has opened. The opening is several months late after salt water was found to affect signalling forcing some modifications. Now regular shuttles will operate along the branch as well as through trains to the rest of the metro network on the island as well as freight trains of course.
Also opening is an extension from NS+'s base to the Quentin Hills Observation Point. Work is progressing on the next major extension to Henkly Point and the branch to Rotos Island. This is now expected to be finished in 2118.
