About the game
The Steam Age is at its height, and you are an ambitious new train company determined to turn your upstart venture into a booming success. You don't have much to begin with — just a small amount of cash and coal, a train engine, and an iron will. In Station to Station, a pick-up-and-deliver game that features engine building and set collection, you need to carefully plan your route, hire the right crew, and manage your cargo if you want to have the most legendary locomotive of all time. —description from the publisher
