18GL is an 18xx game set in the US Great Lakes area. It shares many features with David G.D. Hecht's 1826, differing in that it does not have destinations (and thus no 5-share corporations), only one merger corporation, and diesels instead of TGVs. Unique features include a varied mix of private companies (with a small amount of random setup) and ferry lines, with a mix of other features drawn from numerous games in the series. - BoardGameGeek
