I have played the Tycoon games since they first came out. Railroad Tycoon left a lot to be desired (vey basic); Tycoon 2 is the best of the lot. You have total control of the game which gives better game play. Tycoon 3 is a battle against the computer. You have little or no control over train loadings. The only good innovation in RT3 is the tunnelling option.
To my mind, RT2 is by far the best of the trio. It takes time to master all aspects of the game in order to achieve "Gold" standard in each scenario but it is the most satisfying of the game series.
