1836
Set in Ohio during the early railroad era, the game reflects the state’s many independent railroads, navigable waterways, canals, and flat terrain. Players build and operate railway companies, develop routes, and compete as larger railroads enter the state and acquire or lease the smaller lines. After about two hours, the player with the most money wins.
