Railroad Tycoon II in Stores

Gathering of Developers and PopTop Software announced that Railroad Tycoon II is in stores around the nation today.

Railroad Tycoon II in Stores is the story on November 2, 1998, and it is one of those late-1998 PC gaming updates that says exactly where the scene is right now. Gathering of Developers and PopTop Software announced that Railroad Tycoon II is in stores around the nation today. Developed by PopTop, Railroad Tycoon II, a strategy simulation game for the PC, is the long-awaited sequel to the original Sid Meier classic, Railroad Tycoon.

Featuring 30 scenarios, a realistic stock market and economy system, and maps from around the world, the game allows players to build railroad, industry and financial empires. Railroad Tycoon II is available in stores for $49.95. The business side keeps moving, and sometimes those deals decide what we actually get to play next year.
