Australian Railways is a game about the building of the commercial railroads in
Australia. Players bid for railway links to build up their network. After the
purchase of railway links, players can move a commodity from one city to its destination,
gaining income for the railroads used to transport the commodity. If they don't buy
a railway link in a round, they can move another commodity in the same round. Once
all railway links have been built, players convert their holdings into cash and the player
with the most money wins the game.

When auctioning Railway Links, the Train Player starts each auction in
the current round. Clarification courtesy of John Bohrer. |
