Starship Train is an obvious homage to Gene Roddenberry’s most famous creation, which, from its inception, was known to insiders as “Wagon Train In Space”. The voyages of the starship Boobyprize are infrequent – it’s not like there aren’t gazillions of other people making contributions to the great buzzing ball of Star Trek fan fiction – but on occasion, there just doesn’t seem a better vehicle to fit the topic than Captain Kirkland and crew.
The first Starship Train mission appeared in September 2009.
