This will cause expense, but it will reduce the risks to riders.
Game Instructions: This will be opposed by the allies of Hell and of Criminals, and embraced by those on the side of Constables. It will also displease those concerned with Financial Interests.

 Banditry | Description about level of banditry |
|---|---|
| 0 - 2 | Incidents are relatively uncommon, but the occasional attacker does make an attempt on the train; and then there are pickpockets who work the stations. Something should be done! |
| 3 - 4 | You open your argument with a few accounts […] Several riders were killed on Wednesday's service, and they have lodged a formal complaint. Highwaymen stopped another train entirely […] Is this the sort of service the […] Railway wishes to offer […] its clients? |
| 5 - 8 | You open your argument with a few accounts of recent incidents on the line. […] no one interested in shipping commercial goods will wish to commit their cargo to the train if it is at such a high risk of being stolen. Is this to be tolerated? |
 Jenny | Description |
|---|---|
| 0 | Someone points out that the Moloch Line […] does not appear to be heavily armed. Someone else responds that a train run by Devils might be equipped with all sorts of arcane and secret weapons[…] the lack of visible defences does not mean it's […] unprotected. |
| 1 | Sinning Jenny offers her support. The standards of monster-fighting […] in London are slipping. The passengers cannot be trusted to defend themselves. (It's clear she would prefer it if every rider carried weapons, but this is sadly not the reality.) |
