Description
A SuperTrain domino set manufactured by Puremco Games & Toys. Based in Waco, Texas, Puremco (an acronym for Purvis Reeves Manufacturing Company) was founded in 1954 and became a leader in the industry by automating the domino-making process. SuperTrain is an enhanced version of the classic Mexican Train game. It adds 21 "wild" and "special action" dominoes to a standard double-12 set to increase strategy and pace. Wild Dominoes (14): Feature "Red Trains" or letters (A, D, R, S, T) and can be used when you cannot follow suit. Special Action Dominoes (7): Include specific symbols for actions like Skip (S), Reverse (R), Draw (D), Twice (T), and Anywhere (A). The goal is to have the lowest score. When one player empties their hand, others total the pips on their remaining tiles. Special wild symbols (Red Trains and Letters) count as 10 points each plus the value on the other end of the tile. Standard SuperTrain sets typically include 91 professional-sized dominoes (Double-12 set + action tiles), electronic centerpiece that makes "train" and "rooster" sounds, glitter train markers and a multi-use score pad. Also included is an instruction manual covering SuperTrain, Mexican Train, Chickenfoot, and other games. 3"H x 7"W x 9"L Good condition.
