	The idea of connecting Archendale, Trakai (now Traquai) and Bayview was first proposed in September 2020 under the project name "Barchai". The project did not gain traction until Alexandria's creation in 2020, and Bayview and Alexandria were the first to connect by rail in 2021. Due to [[PoipleBear]]'s inactivity, the route almost bypassed Trakai and only stopped in a temporary station until Traquai train station was constructed by Albinary. Construction completed in Archendale in summer 2021. It became part of the SUD's railway system at the end of 2021.
