There are many industries in the game, and each can produce and/or convert specific cargoes. Way-points may also be inserted to override default track selection where multiple paths are possible.
The player determines what kind of cargo(es) to load and unload at each station that they add to a train's schedule. Track maintenance is solely calculated from track mileage. Engine maintenance depends on engine age and the engine's type (some locomotives cost more to maintain than others). The fuel cost depends on the cargo weight and the distance each engine runs. Expenses include fuel, track and engine maintenance and overhead. Companies can connect to and use each other's tracks and stations, with revenue being split. Delivery revenue varies by time, distance, demand, cargo type, economic state, station improvements and difficulty level. Most of the gameplay consists of building tracks, stations and trains, which are used for hauling passengers and freight from one station to another. The player tries to make profits for investors and completes various other objectives while being hindered by rivals, random events such as train breakdowns, train robbers, economic swings, and scripted events particular to the scenario. The player chooses a map and assumes the role of chairman of a railroad company. Railroad Tycoon II is a railroad simulation that covers the entire history of railroads from inception to the present day and beyond.
