You are an executive of one of the legendary Big Four railroad companies of the Northeastern United States. Your mission is to lead your company by expanding your network, manipulating stock prices and acquiring technologies. Goals and events are different with each game play. This game is web-published and is available for download for print and play. The most current version of the game can be found at the above link; the files here at BGG take a little bit of time to keep updated. I try to keep up on them, but sometimes that doesn't always work out. All files for the game, including expansions and a primitive dice game adaption are here: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0Byhm3WOEqVA1UUkzT0VYRThlQVU&usp=sharing
