Description
Railroading game played out on an abstract map of the entire USA. Although not in the 18XX series, is in its vein as the center of interest and expertise is in management of the stock market, here represented by a matrix. Stock splits, dividends, bankruptcies and shareholder meetings are simulated. Meanwhile players move their pawns around the map's outer edge via card play or die roll. Not really a successor to Pacific Northwest Rails with which it shares cards, chips and cash. This many-faceted system is difficult to grasp in just one play,
