Description from the packaging.

You are a rising tycoon with an epic vision: To build a transcontinental railroad in just 365 days. All it takes is everything you've got.

Industrial giants are forging the world's destiny. Vanderbilt, Ford and Carnegie- these are your peers. You are a rising tycoon charged with a consuming vision: To lay steel from ocean to ocean and create your own… Railroad Empire.

Your education, your experience, and all the lessons of your success bring you to this moment. You must seize it and go forward with only one year to achieve your goal, or go broke trying.

Transform a modest amount of capital and a small stretch of track into a colossal enterprise. Bridge rivers, blast tunnels and maneuver trains along the track you engineer. Build passenger revenue to finance your race into the history books. Strategically manage your resources to maximize your rate of expansion. But watch out. A collision between the passenger and transport lines you control can put you in the poorhouse.

Here is the challenge of a lifetime… Railroad Empire. All it takes is everything you've got.
