America in the 19th century: you're a rancher, bringing cattle from Texas to Kansas City. This earns you money and victory points. Needless to say, every time you arrive in Kansas City, you'll want to have your most valuable livestock with you. However, the "Great Western Trail" requires not only that you keep your herd in good condition, but also that you use the various buildings along the route wisely. It can also be a good idea to hire the right staff: cowboys to improve your herd, craftsmen to build your own buildings or engineers for the important railway line. If you manage your herd wisely and navigate the opportunities and pitfalls of Great Western Trail, you are sure to rack up the most victory points and win the game. The second edition of Great Western Trail includes solitaire rules, making the number of players 1-4. The Games Friends: "Great Western Trail was already a wonderful game, but the beautiful new artwork makes it a real joy to play. The great thing is that you always place the buildings on the game board in a different way, so every game is different." Highly recommended!"

The rails have advanced further north, opening up new opportunities for you to deliver your livestock further than before, even to cities beyond US borders. Those locations can be very beneficial, but they require more work and effort, such as building branches to give you more options to deliver and get different rewards. Much of the content in Great Western Trail: Rails to the North (Second Edition) was included in the original Rails to the North expansion, but this version has been modified and upgraded, with the player boards being dual-layered. Other elements in this expansion include new objective cards, a revised building 13a-13b, new materials for solo mode and a new breed of orange cows.
