Rules Clarifications

• 18 Los Angeles is based on 1846. All 1846 rules apply except as noted in the 18 Los Angeles rules document.
• The Independent Railroads may be purchased by corporations for their full value. This is a change to the 1846 rules that is not documented in the 18 Los Angeles rules, but only appears on the printed game components.
• All the private companies that grant track lays or token placement are teleport-style. The playing corporation does not need a connection to the hex. The $60 and $100 reserved token spots are teleport-style, while the $40 reserved spots require a connection.
• See the BoardGameGeek Rules Forum for more information.
