Carriers is a side quest in Downtown that can be started in two different ways.
The first way is to simply complete Side Quest “Rats in the Dark”. Second way is obtainable by talking with two unmarked Carriers. First one is in Main Terminal Station in Quarry End (talk to him before Revolution / Into the Dark main quests, otherwise he disappears), second one is on board the PK Floating Fortress in The Wharf after completing Observatory main quest.

"The city is home to many organizations. One of the more interesting ones is the Carriers Guild. At first, they seem like simple couriers, but they are much more than that. A Carrier must be strong and fast. My kind of job."

[Jäger]

Great guide!
I personally dislike the font you used as I really doesnt fit into DL2, more like a kid's fantasy game.
But nice work compiling all of this info.
I hope you will finish the Board side quests soon!

[Yogya]
