The Lahnexpress is a dice game for 2 to 4 children from the age of 4 to 5. The game is played on a large wooden board with a central turntable, the railway. Each child gets 5 pieces of one color made of wood. 4 of these are set up on the base plate at your own station. The dice are rolled in turn. The player with the highest score may then turn the game disc so that the first wheel of the locomotive is at his station. Then the starting player rolls again. With the number of points now rolled, the game is played as follows: First, a token is placed on the rails in the direction of the arrow for the number rolled. Then the locomotive continues in the same direction for the same number of points. If the wheels of the wagon of their own color are on the same track space as their token, the player with that token may board the wagon. This also applies equally to all other players. The child who was first to place four game pieces in the wagon of the same color wins. —user summary
