When you land on a district that has a railroad and at least 1 other district also has a railroad, you can use a railroad from a district that you have landed to go to another district with a railroad.

Parker Brothers was acquired by General Mills in February 1968. [124] The first Monopoly edition in Braille is published in 1973. [125] Also in 1973, as the Atlantic City Commissioner of Public Works considered name changes for Baltic and Mediterranean Avenues, fans of the board game, with support from the president of Parker Brothers, successfully lobbied for the city to keep the names. [126] After Parker Brothers was taken over by General Mills, the Monopoly license to Waddingtons was renegotiated (as was the Clue/ Cluedo license to Parker Brothers/General Mills by Waddingtons). [127] By 1974, Parker Brothers had sold 80 million sets of the game. [128] In 1975, another anniversary edition was produced, but this edition came in a cardboard box looking much like a standard edition. [123] Parker Brothers was under management by General Mills as the first six Monopoly Tournaments were held. Walsh, Tim (2004). The Playmakers: Amazing Origins of Timeless Toys.

In 1903, Georgist Lizzie Magie applied for a patent on a game called The Landlord's Game with the object of showing that rents enriched property owners and impoverished tenants. She knew that some people would find it hard to understand the logic behind the idea, and she thought that if the rent problem and the Georgist solution to it were put into the concrete form of a game, it might be easier to demonstrate. She was granted the patent for the game in January 1904. The Landlord's Game became one of the first board games to use a "continuous path", without clearly defined start and end spaces on its board. [15] [16] Another innovation in gameplay attributed to Magie is the concept of "ownership" of a place on a game board, such that something would happen to the second (or later) player to land on the same space, without the first player's piece still being present. [16] A copy of Magie's game that she had left at the Georgist community of Arden, Delaware and dating from 1903–1904, was presented for the PBS series History Detectives. [17] This copy featured property groups, organized by letters, later a major feature of Monopoly as published by Parker Brothers. [18] [19] Once you own all of the districts in two color groups, you can buy the MONOPOLY Tower and build it on any district in those groups.a b "Monopoly – History & Fun Facts". Hasbro.
