Lightning Train is a strategic, train-inspired board game with bag-building mechanics for 1–4 players.
You run a railway company across North America, competing to deliver goods in the most profitable way. By building your bag with new tiles, you strengthen your company's resources and open up stations and train lines across eight regions.
