	18xx is the collective term used to describe a set of railroad-themed stock market and tile laying games. The 18xx set has two main branches: the 1829 branch (1829, 1825, 1853, and 1829 Mainline) and the 1830 branch (1830, 1856, 1870, etc). There are also a number of crossover games which sit somewhere between the two branches (eg 1860). While general railroad operations such as track laying are critical to both branches, the two branches are fundamentally quite different in character and player focus. The 1829 branch games emphasize stock-picking and portfolio management while the 1830 branch concentrates more on financial prediction and stock market manipulation. So in 1829 et al players are rewarded for holding the right stocks at the right time and for running their companies well, while in 1830 et al they are are rewarded more for manipulating the stock market to their advantage and investing in the companies that thereby profit.		18xx is the collective term used to describe a set of railroad-themed stock market and tile laying games.

	18XX is the collective term used to describe a set of railroad-themed stock market and tile laying games. The 18XX set has two main branches: the 1829 branch (1829, 1825, 1853, and 1829 Mainline) and the 1830 branch (1830, 1856, 1870, etc). There are also a number of crossover games which sit somewhere between the two branches (eg 1860). While general railroad operations such as track laying are critical to both branches, the two branches are fundamentally quite different in character and player focus. The 1829 branch games emphasize stock-picking and portfolio management while the 1830 branch concentrates more on financial prediction and stock market manipulation. So in 1829 et al players are rewarded for holding the right stocks at the right time and for running their companies well, while in 1830 et al they are are rewarded more for manipulating the stock market to their advantage and investing in the companies that thereby profit.		18XX is the collective term used to describe a set of railroad-themed stock market and tile laying games.

-	18xx is the name of a category of railroad-themed stock market and tile laying games. The 18xx series is really two series. There is the 1825/1829 side (1829, 1825, 1853, and 1829 Mainline), and the 1830 side (1830, 1856, 1870). They are fundamentally quite different in feel. On both sides, the tile laying and route-building elements are important. But aside from that, the 1825-style games emphasize stock-picking and portfolio management while the 1830 side is much more about financial operations. So in 1825 you are rewarded for holding the right stocks at the right time and for running your company well, while in 1830 you are generally rewarded for gaming the stock market and running your companies well.	+	18XX is the collective term used to describe a set of railroad-themed stock market and tile laying games. The 18XX set has two main branches: the 1829 branch (1829, 1825, 1853, and 1829 Mainline) and the 1830 branch (1830, 1856, 1870, etc). There are also a number of crossover games which sit somewhere between the two branches (eg 1860).

So in 1829 et al players are rewarded for holding the right stocks at the right time and for running their companies well, while in 1830 et al they are are rewarded more for manipulating the stock market to their advantage and investing in the companies that thereby profit.
