Thank you Stephen. You've put it well better than I could. I don't think I explained this, but every single one of my trains has 9 cars, so I can get max profit from the run. I don't care how slow the train goes, because the profits usually make up for it. But sometimes I wish I could just start the game 20 years later so i can get some faster trains. My strategy is: 1 train for 1 track, trains carry the max amount of trucks possible.
