There isn't.
You even don't have to build it.

Re: What's the point of a headquarters?
Doesn't the HQ building reflect your company status? Like a visual rendition of the value of your company...lots of value and the HQ gets big and flashy?
I must admit to not bothering with it too much myself!

Re: What's the point of a headquarters?
I wonder whether the HQ also acts as a normal building, accepting/producing passengers, etc? I say this because I recently had an AI build a HQ (and a competing freight line ) next to a station of mine that was nowhere near any populated area, and the next thing I knew I had passengers waiting.
At any rate, HQs do look nice, especially once you get into the upper performance indexes.

It could be that you got that bug which generates random passengers in the middle of countryside!

Headquarters does indeed generate passengers

Re: What's the point of a headquarters?
my head quater's are always built by my first starting town/city becuase my first line is normally passengers and the HQ does generate passengers.

Re: What's the point of a headquarters?
I place my headquarters near my busiest line (usually a railroad line).
I am currently innactive on these forums, but I will come here every once in a while to check up on things.
