Transatlantic Rails

Combines the two base maps and adds ocean shipping between continents. Each player has a freight train on each board and a freighter that carries commodities across the ocean. Trains and freighters must be co-located in the same port to load or unload cargo unless a warehouse is built in a port to store commodities for $10. Freighters take three turns to cross the ocean and can be upgraded to a heavy freighter to increase capacity from two to three commodities. Transatlantic deliveries pay double. Port cards, freighter pieces and warehouse markers are included as components to be prepared before play.
