Railways of the Eastern U.S.
It is the mid-1800s and you are the owner of a fledgling railroad company. The age of railroading has begun. Cities teem with potential passengers, the countryside yields a bountiful harvest, and countless new factories bulge with finished goods! The potential profits are huge, but who will be the first to seize the best opportunities? The competition will be fierce and only the smartest and most ambitious will prosper. You call the shots. You are the Railroad Baron!
