Description

The game has eight phases. The first permanent trolley car is the '8'. Phases 4 and 5 represent the Great Depression and revenue declines during this period of the game in which brown tiles are available. Brown tiles only contain one station space. Upgrading a two station space green tile to a single station space brown tile removes a station marker from the board, which simulates trolley companies shrinking during these two phases.

Another unique feature is that a board of directors (3 players) controls the government railroad, which is determined by the player that controls the priority deal card from the previous stock round. This will change at the end of each stock round assuming a different player holds the priority deal card.
