Maybe the reason there were so many mechs on the train, especially the spiderdroid, is because of the White Fang. Maybe the SDC started investing in a robotics company to attempt to defend themselves from and try to fight back against the White Fang.

If that is the case... and if Penny is a robot... What if Penny was made by the same company that made the robots in the Black Trailer? She's an experimental new type of battle robot, designed to fight people like the White Fang.

Hey, maybe a robotics company is one of the SDC's "questionable business partners."
