Description

Switching Tracks is a fun train game where you pick up and deliver goods across the United States. The board features railroad tracks and cities, with switch tiles at intersections that can be changed to alter your train's route. As you travel from city to city, you'll collect goods and deliver them to matching colored cities, all while trying to outmaneuver your opponents. With easy-to-learn rules, 2 to 5 players can join in on the action, which typically lasts about 60 minutes. You can upgrade your train for speed or capacity, or hire switchmen to change more tracks and gain an advantage. Special abilities can also be gained through offices, helping you fulfill contracts and get ahead. The goal is simple: be the first to fill five contracts and you'll win the game, making Switching Tracks a great choice for puzzle and train enthusiasts alike.
