Ticket to Ride: Europe – 15th Anniversary

Collect sets of colored train cards and spend them to claim railway routes across a map of Europe using deluxe components. Longer routes score more points, and players also draw destination tickets that reward points for connecting specific city pairs or deduct points if left unfulfilled. Gameplay cycles through drawing cards, claiming routes, and picking new tickets until the map fills and final scoring determines the winner.

Rules questions

Answered from the rulebook by Ludoya's rules assistant.

If I take a faceup Locomotive, can I still draw a second card that turn?

No — if you take a faceup Locomotive it must be the only card you pick that turn; however, if you draw a Locomotive as a blind draw from the deck it counts as a single card and you may still draw a second card (page 4).

Can I claim both tracks of a double route?

No — a single player may never claim both Tracks of a Double Route, and in 2‑ or 3‑player games only one of the two Tracks may be claimed (the other is locked) (page 5).

How do Tunnels work — do I have to pay extra cards when I try to claim one?

When you attempt a Tunnel you first play the cards for the route, then reveal the top three train cards; for each revealed card that matches the color you played (Locomotives count as matches) you must play an additional card of that color or a Locomotive, or you may take your cards back and end your turn; the revealed cards are then discarded (pages 5–6).

Do Ferry routes require Locomotives?

Yes — to claim a Ferry you must play a Locomotive for each Locomotive symbol shown on the route, plus the normal set of cards of one color for the remaining spaces (page 5).

If I draw Destination Tickets during the game, do I have to keep any of them?

You draw three Tickets (four in the Big Cities variant) and must keep at least one of them; any you do not keep are placed on the bottom of the deck, and kept Tickets cannot be discarded later (page 6).

How do Train Stations work, what do they cost, and how are they scored?

You may build up to three Stations (one per turn): first costs 1 card of any color, second costs a set of 2 of one color, third costs a set of 3 of one color (Locomotives may substitute); a Station lets you use one opponent’s route into/out of that city to complete your Tickets (you choose which route at final scoring), and each unused Station scores +4 points at the end (pages 4, 6–7).
