To reflect the current place of residence of this site's owner, this game takes place on the Manchester Metrolink. Obviously this map offers fewer subtleties than the London Underground, but I think there will be some opportunity for tight play. Winning move is Bowker Vale.
And so it begins...

Fellow drag racers will agree that Pomona is the only valid option at this pre-stage.

Old Trafford. Care for a quick sixes match?

Ahhh .. Crumpsall - gosh this is tight isn't it. I reckon the Becks is up to 7.4 already.

Retreating to Weaste. [All] By the way, some stations were renamed after the system reopened, which might allow for some bifurcations. I'll try and find a suitable URL detailing the changes.

Reopened? Opened? Whatever. In fact, I'm not even sure that statement is true. Certainly, the names on my A-Z differ from those on the stops, and I'm curious as to (a) why and (b) what effect this might have on gameplay.

To play or not to play, that is the question. Oh, alright then, Dane Road.

Mosely Street waiting to go north against the flow.

I must progress with all speed to the wonderfully named Besses o' th' Barn station. What makes me think that there ould never be a station called that south of, say, Derby ?

Hello. I'm trying to track down an old game I played in using the GMPTE network ruleset. This game is the closest to that, geographically. Anybody remember it, and maybe suggest where I might find it? It might have been on Mr Wildpants server, which seems to be gone...

Yes, Pants is unfortunately long dead. I dunno if anyone's kept an archive of the games on it.
