Object of the Game
Points can be scored by:
1. Claiming a Route between two adjacent cities on the map
2. Successfully 'completing a Continuous Path of routes between two cities listed on your Destination Ticket(s);
3. Completing the Longest Continuous Path' of routes to win the European Express Bonus card;
4. For each Train Station' kept in reserve at the end of the game.
Points are deducted from the players’ total score for each of their Destination Tickets that are not successfully completed by the end of the game.
Player Turn
Players must perform one (and only one) of the following four actions:
Draw Train Car Cards – The player may draw two Train cards (or just one, if the card they select is a face-up Locomotive. See Locomotives for special rules);
Claim a Route – The player claims a route on the board by playing a set of Train cards from his hand that match the color and quantity of the spaces that make up the route. They place one of their colored trains on each space, and scores the number of points indicated on the Route Scoring Table for that route’s length;
Draw Destination Tickets – The player draws three Destination Tickets from the top of the Tickets deck, and must keep at least one of them;
Build a Train Station – The player may build a Station in any city that does not yet have one. To build his first Train Station, the player plays one Train card of any color and places one of his Train Stations on that city. To build their second station, a player must play a set of two cards of the same color, and to build their third station a set of three cards of the same color. Only one station is allowed per city.
Train Stations allow the player to use one route another player has built during scoring. Different Destination Tickets can be scored with a single station as long as they use the same route. The route must have been built by an opponent (it cannot be empty).
Other Rules
Ferries To claim a Ferry Route, a player must play a Locomotive card for each Locomotive symbol on the route, and the usual set of cards of the proper color for the remaining spaces of that Ferry Route.
Tunnels When attempting to claim a Tunnel route, a player first lays down the number of cards required by the length of the route. Then the three top cards from the Train draw pile are turned face-up. For each card revealed whose color matches the color of the cards played to claim the Tunnel, an additional card of the same color (or a Locomotive) must now be played from their hand. Only then can the player successfully claim the Tunnel route. If the player does not have enough additional Train cards of the matching color (or does not wish to play them), they may take all their cards back in his hand, and their turn ends.
