Railroading Across the Trans Mississipi from 1970

Ages 14+

Published 1992

Designed by Bill Dixon and Phillip J Smith

Illustrated by Bill Dixon and Mike Russo


This extension of the 18XX game takes players to the Trans- Mississippi Valley of midwestern America. 1870 combines the successful 18XX system with a new geographic venue and new custom rules while still allowing players to build railroad and enter into share speculation. The ability to engage in the infamous abuses of corporate power only add to the fun.
