Railways of England and Wales

I'm not really into train games like this. I also don't like the new rules this expansion brings into the game.

I don't rate the expansions but they are all good.

The map is done well, but it's tough to find the cities.

After 2 plays of the advanced share system, I can't quite get over the fallacies in it. The "Do Nothing" strategy is obvious and somewhat unavoidable, even with variant rules, especially late in the game. Also being able to move cubes along any colour track means all companies can perform reasonably well, even with limited cubes. Also dislike that you can either build track or move a cube as an action and have 3 actions a turn. Much prefer the Steam method of build track + move 2 cubes per turn.

I like both the expansion to original Railroad Tycoon, and the new rules.
