About Railroad Corporation 2:
In the city’s bustling heart, amid the clatter of trains and the bustle of commuters, your journey begins. As you step into your newly established office, a map spreadsout before you, and with dreams of empire in mind, you’re ready to lay the foundations of your railroad legacy. The city streets may be crowded, but your path is clear—forge ahead, build your network, and rise to greatness.

Railroad Corporation 2 is a train tycoon game set at the turn of the 20th century, where you take on the mantle of a railroad magnate to start your new railroad corporation. Seize the opportunity of railroad electrification to lead the charge in the new world of trains. Strategize as you lay tracks, balance finances, deploy locomotives to ferry goods across vast landscapes, and outpace the competition.

Full speed ahead! Connect the region by rail to promote trade and supply your organization. Upgrade your tracks over time, unlock diesel and electric locomotives, and increase speed and efficiency to deliver more goods across the country. Control semaphores to control the flow of traffic, and keep junctions clear and trains running smoothly. Construct bridges, tunnels, or level crossings to manage a vast network of tracks and locomotives.

Found cities and cultivate their growth over time. Research and build industry production facilities, hospitals and banks, among other structures, to reveal unique benefits that will help your corporation thrive. Construct power plants to supply electricity to cities, stations, and railroads. Upgrade these structures to push your corporation to its full potential.

Resources becoming scarce? Unlock additional resources through research and discover groundbreaking ways to develop the landscape, including the ability to unearth new raw materials.

Financial acumen is as vital as laying tracks and running trains. Analyze accounting reports to assess your fiscal health and make strategic decisions. Dive into the world of loans and bonds to infuse your corporation with much-needed capital through the Financial Department. But tread carefully – each financial choice carries its own risks and rewards. Buy low, sell high, and shape global commodity prices to your advantage. But remember, every trade has consequences, and your actions can ripple through the market.

With the Lobbying Department, influence government policies and local regulations to your advantage. Whether it’s securing tax breaks or reducing construction costs, strategic lobbying can give you the edge.

Grow your corporation through the campaign mode! Test your skills and compete against your friends for prominence in online multiplayer. Forge partnerships and work together in co-op mode, or focus on your solo corporation in Sandbox mode. The choice is yours!
