The game based on immigrants coming to America, working in the coal mines, cornfields etc. contributing to the growth of the nation, while the bankers of Wall Street collecting the gold.
Hey Jancsika, I’m just trying this for the first time and it seems that I can’t pick up any resources (fish, oil, etc.) even though i’m delivering “people” as indicated. Am I doing something wrong?
Senna, Jancsika has passed on. Before he died he made some of my favorite maps. In this one, he set up many of the industries to require the delivery of passengers (i.e. immigrants) to produce goods. Looking at the xml files it looks like the coal mine, gold mine, fishery, dairy, cattle ranch and oil fields all require the delivery of passengers in order to produce goods. In some cases each carload of passengers delivered produces 1 or 2 carloads of resource goods. You need a lot of passengers delivered to these industries to produce all the goods needed. If I remember right most of the passengers are generated by the east coast cities. Good Luck and have Fun!!
TMiller, thank you for the news about Jancsika, I didn’t know him, having just joined this site recently, but I’m sure it was a big loss to the community. Sad indeed.
I sorted out the issues with supply/resources (as you noted). I also discovered that that certain trains will not pick up resources, which was also part of issue that i was having.

Thanks for your reply!
I’ve only just seen this very sad news about Jancsika. He’s done many of the most interesting and challenging maps and will be sadly missed
