Game Description

The box, board, and all components are made of wood.

Publisher's Description: Can you build the first transcontinental railroad across the United States? Central Pacific is a 2-4 player, wide open game of building railroads. Build over and tunnel under mountains, through forests. Forge rail links between cities and steal a few of your opponents'.

A great introduction to railroad gaming, and a quick fix for those already addicted to the genre. Can be played out-of-pocket on any surface. It's the perfect answer to the question "What should we play while we wait for Pete to show up?
