Builds

Ivor & Co continued extending spurs into the mountainous centre, before building a branch for the Black Sea littoral. TTYF! built into Brasov alongside Romanov Railways, and also built along the north towards Moldavia. Competition is arriving from Impaler Trains, who now link into the Ukraine and have a southern branch towards Bulgaria and Yugoslavia, and from Romanov Railways whose network now extends into Moldovia and who are building in parallel with TTYF! towards Sugeava. Before their chief Engineer took a brief break in Malta, Hedgehog built a line along the Danube towards Yugoslavia.

One more round of building before the races.
