Expenses include the fuel, track and engine maintenance and management fee. The fuel cost depends on the cargo weight and the distance each engine runs. Engine maintenance depends on engine age and the engine's type some locomotives cost more to maintain than others. Older engines cost more to keep them on the line. The track maintenance is solely calculated from track mileage. Personal Net Worth is how rich the player and the player can use personal cash to buy shares from different companies, in an attempt to increase their personal wealth.
There are also recessions and booms that happen randomly, so there is always risk involved in acts such as buying on margin or selling short. Company Net Worth is related to the total amount of assets that the company has, and this increased by trains delivering cargoes. Company Net Worth can be used to build more track to expand your railroad network.

When building track, players are encourage to think about the amount of curves and grades that the track has, as it will slow the trains down and cause traffic jams.
Even the smallest grades will slow down the trains when they go uphill, so it is important to find a way around large grades. It is possible to build tunnels in Railroad Tycoon, which despite expensive, allows tracks to cross mountains while providing a flat gradient.
It is possible for trains to cross tidal estuaries, the ocean or large lakes with the help of ferryboats. A ferry route may include curves but may not be double tracked. Trains also move very slowly on Ferry Routes.
River bridges can also be built in Railroad Tycoon, but only in a straight line over one river square. Bridges allow trains to go across rivers, but they are prone to flooding, and a train stuck on a bridge during a flood is destroyed. There are 3 different types of bridges, each with their advantages and weaknesses. In Railroad Tycoon stations are the only places that trains can stop to pick up and deliver cargoes.
Building track into industrial sites or cities has no effect on creating supply and demand for cargoes. The transfer facilities that automatically come with a station must be present for pickups and deliveries to take place. They are differentiated by their cost, economic radius, and map icon. All industrial and population sites within the radius of a station send supply and receive demand business through the station.
By adding together the supply and demand for cargoes from the industry and population within range, the supply and demand for the station is determined. For example, assume each coal mine creates an average supply of two carloads of coal per year. A station with three coal mines within its economic radius then generates a supply of about six carloads of coal per year.
In Railroad Tycoon, stations can also have facilities that could help improve the efficiency of the station. At each station but not signal towers it is possible to build any of the following improvements:. The objective of the game is to make money by transporting cargoes across to destinations and this is done primarily by trains.
