An educational game featuring the building of the railways across North America in the 19th century.
The board is overlayed with a square grid and each square has a number in it (from 2 to 10) and this is the cost of building a railway through that square. Railways are drawn on the board as they are built (similar to Railway Rivals).
Two packs of Chance Cards, but these are way too lucky or unlucky. One pack is used until someone reaches the Rocky Mountains and then the 2nd stack is used "More in keeping with the 2nd phase of the game" say the rules.
The Railway Pioneer with the most money after a set time, wins.
