In the highly anticipated expansion to Great Western Trail, Rails to the North has players returning once again to the trail. This time players will deliver their herds to northeast United States with destinations such as Chicago, Detroit, New York City, amongst other cities in an effort to become the most successful cattle rancher this side of the Mississippi.

Be advised that business is much more difficult on this rail, players will want to take advantage of friendly hospitality by establishing branchlets and helping form towns. In addition to the exciting new railway system, players will also discover new station master tiles, private buildings, and an expanded player board to offer more strategic depth to their decision making.

The base Great Western Trail game is required to use this expansion.
