Right outside of this is the stagecoach, which allows the player to fast travel to any discovered settlement in the game. The first building to find is the train station. On both sides of this are two sets of train tracks: one for the freight train and one for the passenger train. Scattered around the top of the hill are wooden planks and tree logs, which, seeing as many tree stumps surround Annesburg, have been gathered from the nearby forests of Roanoke Ridge.Įntering the town from the south, a main street stretches from the south of the town to the north.

Health hazards are abundant around the Annesburg mine, which may be why so many workers have lost their lives here. The area is loud, busy and dirty, and seems to be very dangerous. The mine and its surroundings are protected by guards, who become hostile if the player enters restricted territory. The mine features a railway system for mine-carts, which deliver coal around the settlement. Stairways and paths connect this housing area to the mine and the main street running through the town at the base of the hill.Īt the top of the hill is the mine itself. The workers of the mine live in rows of identical, grey wooden huts, running along the side of the hill. Most of the settlement's population either work in the mine or live with somebody who does. The surrounding water beside Annesburg has an oily sheen from the large amounts of pollution, with many oil barrels and large quantities of garbage seen littered around the river bank.įreight trains regularly pass through Annesburg, delivering and collecting goods. The town is constantly covered in a thick, dark blanket of fog from the coal, and large chimneys pump black smoke into the air. It is the most modernized and largest settlement in the state of New Hanover, being larger in size than Valentine and the nearby Van Horn Trading Post. Annesburg is a mining town in Roanoke Ridge, New Hanover, which has been mining coal for nearly a century.
