Trip-It Railway Game

A train game where you move your chosen engine along the tracks with the objective to pass each of the 24 stations on the board. Each player’s engine starts at one of 4 London stations (Paddington, Euston, King’s Cross, and Waterloo) and moves along twinned track. The track has coloured spaces that when landed upon require the moving player to draw one or more cards that have various consequences. There are also numbered spaces on the track that when landed upon indicate the number of cars to be added behind the engine - thereby affecting the speed at which the engine moves. The number of cars and engine speed is tracked on individual player cards. A chart is consulted and a single die is rolled to determine engine speed/movement, which stays in effect until the number of cars changes. Slower engines can block faster moving engines going the same direction and you may have to wait until an oncoming engine (placed on the board from a drawn card) goes to a siding before moving forward.
