18xx in 90 minutes? Yes!

18Xpress delivers the feel of a middle-weight 18xx game in just 90 minutes.

18Xpress features a streamlined network building and income system that significantly reduces the playing time of a typical 18xx game without sacrificing the core aspects of the system. This luckless game was inspired by the simplicity of Railways of England and Wales, 1889, and the Historic Railroads System by Winsome Games.

A special thanks goes out to Isaac Bickerstaff for generously providing the name of the game during the Print & Play Dice Game Contest.
