Railroad tycoons race to build a profitable rail empire across North America by connecting cities and hauling goods for cash.

Gameplay

Build track between cities, upgrade locomotives, take loans, and run deliveries to earn the most money and bonuses by game end. Every decision is a balance between expanding faster than rivals and not overextending your finances or getting route-blocked.
