There are a total of 11 Station cards: 6 Street cards (blue background) and 5 Underground Cards (pink and yellow background).

	On each turn, a Station card ~~with a symbol~~ is flipped over.

Players draw a straight line from either end of their current line to a connected station that has the corresponding symbol. Note that two of the cards are jokers (wild cards), and can be used to connect to any symbol. One card is a Railroad Switch symbol: when this card is turned over, turn over another symbol card, but you may start your straight line segment from any station on your current line (creating a fork in your track).

	When the 5th Underground card (pink and yellow background) is flipped, it signals the end of this round. Players have the option to draw the last section and then proceed to the next phase.		Tracks may not cross (except through a station) or duplicate.
