The train is traveling Eastward across a variable board to East Copperdowns. Along the way, players invest in towns that payout when the train visits. Players can choose to move the train rather than invest. The train cannot reuse track it has already covered and moves persistently to the east. Once the train reaches East Copperdowns, the player with the most investment cubes in her possession wins. The game requires three players. There are bot rules included for 1 or 2 player games. Game comes tightly packed in a small "mint" tin.
