Railroad Tycoon 3 is a business simulation designed by Sid Meier. The DOS version of the game can now be downloaded and played for free.[1]The game is the first in the Railroad Tycoon series.
A port of the game for the Super NES was planned for a summer 1993 release, and screenshots were shown in the March 1993 issue of Nintendo Power, however the port was never released. Though no reason was officially given,[2]it may have been due to the DOS release of Transport Tycoon, and its planned release on the upcoming Playstation console
The objective of the game is to build and manage a railroad company by laying track, building stations, and buying and scheduling trains. The player acts a railway entrepreneur may start companies in any of four geographic locales: the Western United States, Northeast United States, Great Britain, orContinental Europe. The company starts with one million dollars in capital; halfequity, half a loan. The company may raise additional capital through the sale of bonds.
There are four types of stations: Signal Tower, Depot, Station, and Terminal. The Signal Tower acts as a passing loop and may control movements. The rest service surrounding areas: the Depot serves its own square and the adjoining eight squares, the Station takes another ring, and the Terminal handles up to three squares away. The player can build at most 32 stations. When the player builds the first station they also build their first engine shop. Each engine shop is the manufacturing area for the player's different trains. The player can upgrade and downgrade Depots, Stations, and Terminals. Other facilities such as stores and hotels may be added.
