    FursonaCon 2026 · Details

    On September 3rd, 2026, the long-awaited maiden voyage of the Fursonacon Express is nearly upon us, promising an unparalleled journey of luxury and refinement for all who board, departing from Newport News and returning on September 6th. Gilded carriages, velvet lounges, and fine dining await passengers as the locomotive prepares to steam its way into history. Yet, amidst the thrill of high society gathering under one roof of polished brass and crystal chandeliers, murmurs stir among the locals. Some marvel at the elegance and wealth soon to grace the rails, while others whisper a darker sentiment: “Where riches gather, trouble follows close behind.” Will the Fursonacon Express carry the laughter of grand celebration, or will shadows ride with her into the night?
