1862: Railway Mania in the Eastern Counties is an 18xx game set in East Anglia, England. It features a company-packed board, where 16 of 20 companies are randomly selected for use on a board containing only 37 hexes. Major features of the game are:

Petitioning parliament as a means of floating your preferred company
a mixture of full and partial capitalisation for companies
three train types with differing objectives and building requirements
company mergers and re-floatation
1860-style semi-linear stock-market featuring multiple stock jumps.

Great 18xx game

Lots of different stuff to think about in this one. The solo mode is incredibly well done, and quite difficult to beat.

Worth it

Good game

Excellent

Order was processed quickly and received right before Christmas. Would recommend using again.

Very beautiful looking game. Love the large book full of story. Didn't get it to the table yet but look forward to it.

This is not going to be a game for everyone, especially if AP (analysis paralysis) players or having to frequently refer to a player aid is a concern. Each time you take and place cat cards, players will need to consider how each type of cat scores; this means either constantly looking at the player aid or memorizing the scoring for each cat type.
That aside (or rather once I got in the swing of which cats scored what), I love the puzzle nature of the game and how sometimes you have to take some negative points to achieve a greater good. ;) Even if I have to play this one only solo, its staying in my collection for quite some time!

An innovative design by a Spanish designer on a Spanish war.
Suitable for people new to wargames.

Real surprise.

It’s a great small and easy to teach game for all levels of game players.
