HOBBITON
Hobbiton is built inside a return loop on a raised platform.
Farmer Maggot, mentioned in The Lord of the Rings, started a produce company
in Hobbiton. He built a warehouse, then added an ice house to store ice for the refrigerated cars
that carry fruits and vegetables from farms in the Shire to all the other towns on the Lake Town
& Shire. The Hobbits of the Shire also built a grain elevator and began shipping their surplus
grain to other towns.
Hobbiton has a passenger depot, a freight depot, and a loading platform beside its team track.
Hobbiton is thriving with a large number of businesses and shops.
Many hobbits still live in holes like this one at Bag End.
