Spring 1997/Vol 4, no 1 Following is a list of train game releases slated for 1997. All
information is, of course, subject to change. 1842 by Wolfram Janich, to be produced by Chris Lawson; located
in the Holstein area of Northern Germany; release date unknown 18TN by Mark Derrick, produced by Chris Lawson; located in Tennessee
and Kentucky; release date unknown India Rails to be released by Mayfair Games, Inc. The newest entry
to the famed Empire Builder or "crayon games" system of train
gaming. Expect it to be released in a boxed version for $30. Release
date is expected to be early Fall. Confederate Rails by Richard Berg, produced by Avalon Hill. Just
what it says--a game about railroading during the Civil War. Expected
release date is early Fall. Silverton: Various sources tell us that Mayfair Games, Inc still
plans to release their version of this popular game. RAIL GAMER
informs us that Winsome Games is negotiating the rights for the
game. Go figure! If Mayfair produces the game then we can probably
expect to see their version this year. If Winsome Games publishes
Silverton, they may have to start from scratch which may push
the release date back into 1998. Home | The Manifest | All Aboard | Train Gamers Gazette Questions or comments? Email tgatrains@aol.com. The contents of this Web Site are copyright © 1998 by The Train
