Ticket To Ride 20th Anniversary Deluxe Train Set (one Of Each)

To celebrate the twentieth anniversary of Ticket to Ride, Days of Wonder has released the Ticket to Ride: Deluxe Train Set – 20th Anniversary collection, a set of five limited-edition train sets, each in one of the original train colours from the 2004 base game.

• The Yellow Crane Train was our second design choice after the white Milk Tanker cars (our #1 Deluxe Train Set), which served as a proof of concept for this series. This design features a train car with a distinctive shape and a thin crane. Ideally, the crane would be movable, but due to the tiny scale, we opted for a stationary yet intricately detailed model.

• The Red Passenger Car is inspired by a toy train set from the 1980s, a cherished childhood memory of our designer. We’ve also included a small Easter egg referencing one of our favourite movies in this set, adding an extra layer of delight for fans.

• The Green Caboose represents a more modern era, just before caboose cars became obsolete. We chose a lighter, aqua-green colour to offer a refreshing change from the traditional green hues, highlighting the evolution of train designs.

• The Flatcar with Semi-Trailer Truck, inspired by the design featuring two little blue automobiles in the Ticket to Ride: Europe – 15th Anniversary edition, this flatcar carries an old semi-trailer truck. This model includes a charming tribute to the game’s author with the name of the moving company displayed on the truck.

• The Blue Passenger Car, evoking the luxury travel of Europe at the turn of the 20th century, brings to mind the opulent train cars equipped with full bedrooms, dining cars, and salons, often depicted in classic films.

With this collection of Deluxe Train Sets, you can recreate your own Trans Europa Express.
