|location = Station VIII
|Description = (See tables below)
|Description summary= The first paragraph changes if you have a {{IL|Newly-Cast Crown of the City of London}}. The rest is about a painting in the office – a result of your decision in getting to Balmoral.
{{Variant table
|Condition = Newly-Cast Crown of the City of London|Condition alias = Crown|Compact = yes
|Effect = First Pargraph
|Value No = The building has the same rather grim and uninspired form as Factory VIII, but the Tracklayers have tried to enliven it with a few decorative elements.
|Value Yes = Next to the door, someone has hung a commemorative plate. It is painted in your likeness, wearing your newly-cast crown. There is a gilded trim like a wreath of mushrooms.

{{Variant table|Condition = Condition|Condition type = Raw|Effect = Painting Description
|Value 1 = {{IL|Discovered: the Need for Hellworms|Appearance=Used Hellworms to get to Balmoral}}
|Effect 1 = Above the desk is a painting – not the work of a professional artist – depicting a heroic Tracklayer holding the reins of a Hellworm. The Hellworm's fiery maw has been rendered in loving detail by someone who has obviously seen it close-up.
|Value 2 = {{Use|Train through Parabola|Appearance=Detoured through Parabola to get to Balmoral|Type=Text}}
|Effect 2 = […] Those curves are the Parabolan landscape; that thick yellow brushwork represents a smoky air. And those thin, quick zigzags in the grass – those must be the tracks that slither and dart about when no train happens to be passing over them.
