In 2864, then CEO of Gienah Automotive, Duke Solia Zdenekova, was contacted by FWL's corporate owner, Earl Jarv Kefalczyk. The Earl offered a productive proposal to merge the abilities of his shipping company, DuraPaq Solutions, with Gienah's manufacturing abilities. Though the talks took until late twenty-ninth century, Gienah Automotive and DuraPaq jointly created a venture to produce a new line of cargo hauling vehicles: Land Trains.[3]
