Add the station improvements like restaurants, hotels, telephone, saloon and post office.

Micromanage if you like, but try to run full trains and long distances. I run whatever is around, sometimes mixing and sometimes not. Run as many 6 car trains as there is available pass/mail.

Double track and upgrade bridges as you can but I would stay out of the mountains.

Expand as fast as money allows around Beijing and south to Shanghai, and Wuhan plus cities in between. Don't bother bulldozing the track or stations you don't use. Once you accept the deal you can switch managers to either a passenger enhancer or possibly a "lower fuel price" guy. I really like the T-1 on this map because of the break you can get on steam a little later. Then I connect Beijing to Huainan and buy 2 T-1's or Hudsons. I took a manager that lowers the cost of buying steam engines. In fact thats all I haul as freight doesn't seem to pay much and just gets in the way. I like choice number 2 as hauling passengers and mail seems the way to go. Have a company book value of 40 million by 1962.

Wabash Jeff has a ways to go, and probably hasn't even broken any windows yet, right Jeff? The next 6 yrs 10 mos to the 12/62 deadline is probably more than enough time to develop all the industry on the map, a tedious task indeed so I only played to the end of the year, just to see some autos come off the assembly line.īut you and I are old pros, like the guy who introduces the scenarios. The other 15 were developing food from grain and cattle, goods from wool, cotton and steel, and an almost-ready auto industry that started auto deliveries before year-end. Only 14 of them were passenger and mail though. In this particular case I couldn't avoid gold in Feb/56, with Pullman as manager, excess cash, and running 29 F3A+B's. It is hard to ignore passenger development unless it is specifically required to do so. (Try Heartland Heaven and see)Īnyhow, since this topic came up I decided to replay this scenario last month (on Hard of course) using my particular style of play for this kind of map, which is to get a good passenger base and then go after industry. For example, for 2n cities more or less in a row, each of the first n paired with any one of the second n will give a good result. Try for 2 things with your city pairings get a reasonable match on size while keeping a high average distance between city pairs. You may get a diesel purchasing and/or track building one before long and also you'll find Pullman popping up in a few years. If you can get Oakes after your first 2 trains arrive, you may be able to get a few more bonds and do a nice expansion right away. This is a nuisance but rerouting all those trains is part of the fun of the game. As you continue to expand down to Hong Kong, you will want to change pairings to try to keep the same number of cities on each end of your setup. You may also likely want to change some of the pairings to control congestion due to trains crisscrossing. You'll be rolling in so much money you'll want to build additional double tracks to cut down the congestion as you'll probably be running 3-4 trains between some city pairs on a lot of shared track. Like pair up Shijiazhuang and Wuhan, then Shenyang and Zhengzhou. Use F3A+B instead of Alcos if you have the cash. The $$ will come quickly now and soon with your income and further bonds, connect into 2 more cities, maybe Tianjin and Heifi, and fully upgrade them as above. Then load up the trains with pass and mail and let 'er rip. Let second train arrive, then pause again.įinish upgrading the 2 stations, incl sand and roundhouse. Use that revenue to buy restraunt, saloon, post office, hotel for other station and unpause. When first train arrives in station, pause and put the train on stop. Send full Alcos in opposite directions between Beijing and Huainan.įor this first trip, haul passengers over mail if there's a choice. Use any extra $$ to buy restraunt or whatever for one station, and make sure first arrival lands there. Issue a bond (stock issue not allowed, darn!).Ĭonnect Beijing and Huainan with double track but ignore upgrading the bridge for now. (Too bad we never saved a set of strategies for RRT2 like we did for RT3.)
