      A gentle snowfall had begun just as the PolyCon Express pulled out from the train station in Istanbul. It was February 6, 1929 and in just a few days the train would be stopping at Paris, where the biggest, richest auction that Europe had seen in almost a decade would be taking place. Passengers of all types were on board the train: those seeking to make their fortunes at the auction, those looking for that special item to complete their collection, and those with a far more sinister purpose.

      As the storm outside grew worse, tension mounted inside the train, until an argument over one of the auction items led to murder. When the trained slowed to halt as a result of an avalanche blocking the tracks ahead, passengers grew fearful as they realized that a murderer with a secret agenda was loose on the train. Rescue workers were on their way, but would they arrive in time? And what if the murderer was not caught by the time they got there?

      This is the setting for this year's Mid Year LARP. Come back to 1929 and join the crew of PolyCon for a murder-filled day aboard the romantic PolyCon Express. You could take the part of anything from an elusive mobster to a rich Duke from England. You may even get a chance to be the murderer. So take out your vintange clothes and get ready take part in the adventure, excitement and romance as you attempt to solve the mystery of the Murder on the PolyCon Express. (Vintage clothes will be optional but preferred).
