    Feels more like we needed a magic rock to depress a floor-switch than an actual trolley.
    But *the trolley!* You can't have a track without a trolley! That'd be like having a shopping centre without a trolley! How can you not have a trolley? Madness! Sheer madness! The trolley is what holds it all together! Trolley!

    On a more serious note, of course the people of that community values a trolley. They're a mining community. Having a giant lug of a golem pushing around a trolley full of ore is a HUGE thing for them.

    While I was making some light fun of it when I made my comment starting this little part off I felt like the trolley part really worked well because of the dissonance when we first learn about it and Magnus a little later on. Character-wise it was a pretty powerful part IMO.

    If the Scions hadn't been able to get the Talos and the trolley to move they probably would have found another solution, but getting it to work did much more than just get them where they needed. It rekindled hope for an entire community.
