[Thomas the Tank Engine] So my train has a face and can talk, have I gone to hell?

I have to take train to make the last leg of my trip, but turns out my train has a face and speaks. Why? If I didn't have to make this business meeting I'd walk, but did these people sign a dark pact to gain technology and infrastructure?

It's just a weird abberation resulting from the collapse of a super advanced technological society. As humanity rebuilt they decided trains were a great idea, this was also around the time researchers uncovered a buried warehouse of giant cyborg spiders designed to act as transporters (hence the boxy shape). 

Cracking the legs off and replacing them with wheels seemed like a great idea, plus as beings designed to serve the repurposed spiders were perfectly happy working till they broke down. No one questioned the masters once they were awakened, and those who did not wish to work were relegated to disused tunnels and trapped indefinitely.
