Some features:
a/ 1883 is an "incremental cap" style 18xx, where corporations receive money in their treasuries by 1/ players buying the corporations shares or 2/ the corporations issuing their shares to the Bank Pool at almost market price.
b/ Random Events - which corporations can mitigate by buying political support.
c/ Government Concessions - whereby corporations (and players) get a bonus for making certain connections
d/ A bus company - which players may buy shares in, and that has its own network on the board
e/ A co-operative corporation - which players take turns to run (and may steal from)
f/ Two corporations that can merge if their presidents agree.
g/ "Gravity trains" which only cost L.20 and can run on track already used by 'normal' trains and add to company income - they don't count against a company's train limit, but a die is rolled to determine whether they breakdown (and so don't get income) or are even lost altogether.
h/ only a dividend payout greater than or equal to a corporation's current share price will move that share price to the right on the market.

1883, a game based on the 18xx system, reproduces the forgotten history of the small railways of the past in this portion of the Po Valley, connecting the most remote villages in the Emilian Apennines with the Great River Po.
You’ll be tycoons which will compete to earn money and build the best portfolio by investing and operating on the Italian railway system from 1883 onwards.
