So we've talked about how to build a train; a standard train in the dice game of train.
And we talked about how to build a bonus; you can score even more points with something
called a freight train. Now what makes a freight train? Well I shall attempt to show you; here
you have your engine and your coal tender, you can call it your coal carrier if you want
and then you have; let's say you rolled a bunch of coal tenders, right? Let's see you;
you rolled four more coal tenders than you need so you're going to, you can't play those
so you're going to pick them up and you’re going to roll again; and let's say that this
die came up with an engine, well I've already got an engine; I got a coal tender right?
So what do I need with another engine? Well if you have an engine and then a coal tender
you can go like this; put another engine on the front and then you can build cargo cars
behind it, and if your roll should happen to be something like this; this is called
a freight train.
