+====== Multi-Hop Logistics ======
+<note>Multi Hop is not a blueprint; it's a lifestyle</note>
+Multi-Hop Logistics (MHL) is a system by which ships provide transport for train-driven shipping.
+  * Train-carrying ships work static routes between places
+  * Trains have a specific route in their schedule across all of the layovers needed to complete a journey
+  * Trains are not linked to specific ships, they merely look for any ship working the next link.
+The primary downside of the system is that it is very complex to develop.
