”We’re thrilled to have the opportunity to bring this game back home,” said Sid Meier, Director of Creative Development for Firaxis Games. “Railroads is near and dear to our hearts and we’re looking forward to delivering the endlessly fun gameplay experience fans of our games have come to expect.”

Cities and industries grow up around you as Sid Meier’s Railroads! enables players to lay track and route trains, haul raw materials to market and carry manufactured goods throughout the land. Sid Meier’s Railroads! introduces a large number of different single-player game scenarios and a variety of play modes including the “sand-box” modeling mode, real-time LAN and Internet play.
