With the driving of the golden spike in 1869, the first transcontinental railroad was finished in the United States. But really it was only the start of a rapid expansion of railways that would crisscross the entire country.

In Whistle Stop, you'll travel west across the country, using your fledgling railroad company to build routes, pick up valuable cargo and deliver goods to growing towns, making a network of Whistle Stops that you and your competitors can leverage as you continue to expand your networks. Along the way, you'll get shares in other railroads and watch your reputation soar with each successful delivery before making a final push to finish long hauls to the boom towns of the West.
