About the Game

An expansion combining both Empire Builder and Eurorails. Players start with a Freight train on each board as well as a Freighter to transport Commodities from one continent to the other.

Trains and Freighters must be in the same Port at the same time to transfer a Commodity, unless a Warehouse is built to store Commodities, ($10 in a Port).

Like the Trains, the Freighter can be upgraded to a Heavy Freighter to increase its load capacity from two Commodities to three.

Freighters take three turns to cross the ocean. Transatlantic deliveries pay double.

This variant is included in Train Gamers Gazette 2(1). Warehouses, Freighters and Port cards need to be photocopied onto cardstock and cut out before playing.
