The base was originally built during the [[Bourgondii-Loa Wars]] as a minor retrofitting station in [[1837]]. At the conclusion of that conflict the station was all but abandoned but, its ownership remained in the hands of the [[Navy of Burgundie]]. In the [[First Great War]] it was reactivated, but its facilities were too archaic for it to be useful, so it served primarily as a barracks and training ground for local militias. After the conclusion of the [[First Great War]] it was loaned to the [[Revenue Guard]] as a Lifesaving Station. It served in that role until the [[Second Great War]] when a massive construction effort was made to allow for deeper draft ships to dock. New piers were constructed and modern radio relays were installed. These improvements were the last major reconstruction of the base until it was retrofitted for the [[Arcerion]]'s in [[2024]]-[[2029]]. Many of the smaller berths were back-filled to allow for easier replenishment of larger ships and for the dredging of fewer, deeper channels. New radars, and datalinks were installed as well as demolishing all of the facilities on the base and building them to a modern standard. The work was conducted by [[O'Shea Infrastructure and Design]] and many of the materials used were purchased from [[Estia-Odoneru Gypsum, Salt, and Aggregate]]. | The base was originally built during the [[Bourgondii-Loa Wars]] as a minor retrofitting station in [[1837]].

Equatorial Ostiecia uses [[Track gauges around the world|Standard gauge]], 1,435 mm (4 ft 8+1⁄2 in) for both freight and passenger rail. | |||
[[Rail_transportation_in_Burgundie#Equatorial_Express|Equatorial Express]]- The Equatorial Express ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: ''Express Equatorial'') is the public sector, intercity, passenger rail operator in [[Equatorial Ostiecia]], [[Port de Vent]], and [[Sudmoll]]. It owns and operates all rail corridors, {{wp|rights of way}}, and rolling stock that serve this purpose. | |||

Phone service is provided by [[List_of_companies_by_industry_in_Burgundie#Service|Great Seas BurgunMobile, Island Mobile, and National Wireless Services]], which have 372, 271, and 482 towers respectively across the island. 100% of Equatorial Ostiecia and its population are covered by at least one of the services, National Wireless Services covering the less densely populated and therefore less profitable areas. Copperwire and fiberoptic phone still exists, one or both are required for all municipal and emergency response connections, and people along the route are allowed to buy in, but during emergencies their calls are de-prioritized in favor of emergency response calls, which is the same with mobile service on the island. | |||
Highspeed internet service is provided by [[List_of_companies_by_industry_in_Burgundie#Service|Great Seas BurgunMobile, Vintage Wireless, and Island Mobile]]. Residential internet speeds average 2-3 gigabits while commercial speeds are typically higher in the 3-4 gigabit range. | |||
There are also 17 [[Global Maritime Distress and Safety System]] repeaters and beacons across the country. | |||
