um...I just booked a ticket. I don't think I'll make my train, though
I, uh, may have used Anna Heath's address, so...I hope she doesn't get a bill.

So that's 4 out of 5 routes she could end up on. Talk about narrowing the search!

It seems that you are able to reserve seats on trains, if you provide an address that exists in Perplex City, and a key contact (i put Sente Kiteway ). Maybe we will have to reserve all the seats on all the trains out of Ryefield, and force Miranda to get on a particular train(s) to a certain location, to help Kurt catch her.

sounds like a good idea that!
Ive managed to book a couple using gibberish as key address if it ends up being what we have to do.
EDIT: just had a thought actually. Kurt reckons shes going home, any idea where her "home" is supposed to be? We could block those routes first.

The 'round trip' is presumably line 2?
Fivebridge is line 3
Peterfitch and Vastage are line 4
Wooster is line 5
Line 1 doesn't go to Ryefield.
If you try to book trains you get a better forward list than the 'live departures'

Kurt says its down for most of the day. I've managed to book 4 seats using a fake name, a random street address and a 'key' number.
How about we book out all of the seats except on trains going to Perplex City? Force her back into the zone of security cameras?

First Speaker's map seems to tie in with the new hamlets that have magically sprung up on Kurt's Global Search map at http://www.thepathofleasttime.com/map.html
Time for a wilder goose chase perhaps?

Good idea!
You can book a maximum of four tickets at a time and there are 192 seats per train! They are torturing us!

Just a note - you get an anti-fraud message if you try to book too many seats using the same info...
