It would all come down to this. We would either lose money from these Zero Stacks, (or Z stacks for short) অথবা we could form a rivalry with these ponies, and stop bringing them freight. I told everypony else about our suggestions, and we started thinking quickly.

Skywalker: So, what do we do?
Master Sword: Well, I'm definitely not letting this railway get out of business.
Bartholomew: I agree. Unless some other railway gets forced to merge with us fifteen years from now, I think this railroad will last for a very long time.
Skywalker: *Glares at Bartholomew*
Master Sword: So it's settled. We won't give those Z stacks any of our freight.

So it was settled. We refused to bring any freight to the Z stacks, and brought it all the way to Manehattan in our trains.

Later, at West Croton Yards.

Captain Zero: Why haven't we gotten any freight into Manehattan yet?
Zorran: We're trying boss, but the railway is refusing to give any freight to us.
Captain Zero: We work for them. They have to give us the freight!
Zorran: Well, I got an idea. There's a bridge that goes over part of the Hudson River. If we somehow get that taken down, then they'll have to let us get the freight into Manehattan.
Captain Zero: Good thinking Zorran. Tell Zebedee, and Zug to get here right away.
Zorran: Right আপনি are. *Gets in his car, and drives to docks*

Later that day.

Bartholomew: *Switching freight cars in Croton West Yards*
Ten Cents: What's the matter Bartholomew?
Bartholomew: Remember that টাট্টু Zorran আপনি told me about?
Ten Cents: Yes.
Bartholomew: He's trying to take our freight away from us.
Ten Cents: Oh no. We can't let them do that.
Bartholomew: I know.
Ten Cents: What have আপনি been doing?
Bartholomoew: Well so far, we haven't প্রদত্ত any of the freight to the Z stacks. We just kept going into Manehattan.
Ten Cents: Good. Keep it up.
Bartholomew: That's what I'm worried about. If we keep it up, they might create a plan of attack.
Ten Cents: Well for now, I think আপনি should be okay.
Bartholomew: Yes, I hope you're right. *Finishes switching freight cars* Okay, I just got a freight ready for Chicagoat.
Ten Cents: It's a good thing those Z stacks aren't trying to take over every freight train. That would be terrible.
Bartholomew: Yes, that would be terrible. I have to get back to the station, and take a train north.
Ten Cents: Are আপনি going all the way to Albany?
Bartholomew: No, there isn't enough time. I'll go into Peekskill, and let another crew take over. Then, I'll get onto a commuter train for Manehattan, which is where I live.
Ten Cents: Where in Manehattan do আপনি live?
Bartholomew: Near Grand Central Station.
Ten Cents: Interesting. See আপনি later.
Bartholomew: Yeah, see you. *Drives switch engine to station*
