Railway Empire 2: Journey To The East DLC

Meet the visionary businessman Georges Nagelmackers and help him realize his dream of a new and opulent railroad connecting Western Europe to the exotic luxuries of the Ottoman Empire. On the way, treat your esteemed passengers to the best accommodations with the new Luxury Train Connections. These specialized carriages will only carry passengers but allow you to set higher ticket prices to maximize your revenue… assuming you can entice travelers wealthy enough to afford them. Take in the beauty of the misty Carpathian Mountains, witness their pinnacles pierce the sky, and trade with cities and regions rich in culture and history across the Balkans of South-Eastern Europe. Make the journey across a new Balkan regional map in one of six new historically accurate locomotives, including the Bavarian S 3/6, with over ten new luxury goods to transport across your rail network.

The Glamour of the Fin de Siécle: The new feature Luxury Train Connections can be researched from 1870 onwards, providing new luxury wagons. Adjust the pricing for those lines to reach a higher revenue per passenger.
Go with the Vibe: Ten new themed music tracks and 19 jingles to create a more immersive campaign and map.
