Special Rule: You are not allowed to capture Ports.

Honestly, I might as well have placed beaches instead of ports. There is no interaction between the railroads and mechanics
for B-ships/Carriers/Cruisers (which is the sole point of using Ports instead of Beaches) have never been considered from the
start. The next time you make a railroad map, include numerous railway routes and ensure they are key parts of gameplay, such
as wars over the control of the railroads or risky pushes with Battleships. Boats have +30% defense on ports/railroads and that
makes them much more useful to use (for instance, first-strike Copters against Cruisers wouldn't be a viable option most of the
time).

Good use of the train idea, i want to see if people start using it more often, using shoals would solve the special rule problem
but then you would only use landers and black boats, disabling the "train"s firing capabilites, good work either way

problem is that train combat never really happens on this map. the only exception i can think of is sending a battleship to lock
down the corner, but nothing apart from that. and no train vs train combat either.
train combat is the only reason you would want to use ports instead of shoals
