Era 1 Cargo Engines

The first Era has 7 cargo engines named after animals with one being a bonus engine.

You can open new engines by using research points generated by the Laboratory building within your Train Station.  Only when you've researched the required pre-requisites, can you begin to develop the next engine.  At the end of each era,  a coupling system is available, allowing engines to transport goods from the next era.


If you want to compare all the engines, have a look at our Cargo Engine Comparison article.
