Check out the screen shots of the game on steam. It looks likes theres a different menu? Looks like theres an extra button, a light?

Those are likely images of a beta version of SMR, after all look at the oil well blocking the line, we don't have that in our versions.

I've found those icons inside the game files. It's probably an earlier build.

Ya, I found them also. If you unpack Interface).FPK @ C:\Program Files\2K Games\Firaxis Games\Sid Meier's Railroads!\Assets, you'll see them there. I thought they looked familiar.

Seems to be a screenshot of an online multiplayer game ... could that have something to do with this "5th button?"
