About 1867: The Railways of Canada
1867: The Railways of Canada is an 18xx investment and railway operations game. The map represents the central part of Canada, consisting of the southern part of the provinces of Ontario and Quebec. It is a member of the 18xx family. The game takes many features from the earlier 1861: Railways of the Russian Empire, but adds some new features. The key new features are: a) There are no fixed positions for the minor companies, you choose a start position when you put up a minor for auction. b) The State Railway doesn't run its trains and save up for another, but rather just takes the next new train each round. This speeds up the game a little in comparison to 1861, and also accelerates the trains somewhat. This game was originally released as 1867: The Railways of Canada, but is now available as a complete stand-alone game.
