Board with paths leaving New York & traveling to various cities in U.S. Eastern part of country shaded gray - remainder white. There are some 30 - 40 destination cities and there is a spinner with a number for each. Players spin to get their destination. If spin a number taken already take the next in clockwise order. There is a reward connected with each destination. In addition there are spaces for drawing luck cards (more lost than won - I believe) to win or lose money.
