Notes on Tunnels:

	Each turn you may only expend CP's up to your Variation
	number (2 dice roll), and then, only if the roll was not
	doubles (12 excepted), plus you receive totally free any
	Bonus Points granted you by Event Card.

Notes on Mountain Passes:

	Only one Railroad may construct through a Mountain Pass.

	Mountain Pass construction is not allowed at all during
	Winter turns.

	Each turn you may only expend CP's up to your Variation
	number (2 dice roll), and then, only if the roll was not
	doubles (12 excepted), plus you receive totally free any
	Bonus Points granted you by Event Card.

	The cost to Lay Track in a Mountain Pass is double that of
	normal.

Notes on Shaded Hexes:

	Only the first two players can cross a shaded hexside to another
	shaded hex.  City and Mine hexes excepted.

Notes on Standard Grade:

	A Standard Grade may only be commenced from a continuous dual-track
	or standard grade connecting to Denver.
