After covering what passes for 'hawt news' in the world of train games, Dave and Craig discuss their impressions of Peer Sylvester's North American Railways, a train game you could actually play in the pub, albeit whilst attracting quizzical looks.
Warning: Neue Heimat, a game in which no trains feature, may make a cameo appearance {GASP}
Encouraged by the feedback to their pilot episode, after a brief flirtation with a news segment, Dave Moss and Craig Taylor explore their thoughts on the Winsome Games title '1857', set in the land of tango, gauchos and Maradona.
Production values, as ever, remain a developing world prospect.
After the briefest of introductions, your hosts, Craig Taylor and Dave Moss, discuss the Heavy Cardboard Golden Elephant award winning game '1822' and its progeny, sharing their reflections and analysis over the course of 45 minutes(ish).

About The Train Rush
From the publisher's feed
The Train Rush began life as a short form podcast in which the hosts discussed a single ‘train game’ (primarily, but not exclusively, from the 18XX family) they had played in the preceding fortnight.
Since 2020, The Train Rush offers a thoughtful exploration of salient titles or topics within the genre of train games, with episodes released when the hosts have something to say and lasting as long as it takes them to say it.
Rich descriptions, zen reflections and meandering musings often feature. Empirical ratings (mostly) do not.
