Rules Highlights

• Corporations are either minors or majors; minors can convert or merge into majors
• Majors can be started, but only in cities which are disconnected (unless no such cities exist)
• Loans are automatically taken when needed for train buying/track laying/paying loans
• Loans only give you $45 for a $50 value
• Trains can skip towns
• Tokens are based on price * hex distance as crow flies from the nearest token
• Merging other players corporations requires their permissions
• Timmins pays out $80 instead of $40 if the run includes Toronto, Montreal or Quebec (this can be doubled 5+5E trains)
• Corporations that cannot afford a train or loan interest get nationalized
• No president contributions for trains
• Minor corporations that end trainless due to rust at 4 & 6 get nationalized. All minors nationalize at the beginning of phase 8.
• Major corporations can be nationalized due to the rust events at 4, 6, & 8

Implementation Notes

• Open Issues
• Tokens for nationalization are done in Price order followed by reverse hex order rather than Price order followed by random.
• Tile #639 does not contain the Canadian National token until it is placed.
