Colt Express: The Time Travel Car

A special car is added in front of the locomotive that functions as a hiding and movement mechanic between rounds. Bandits can enter the car via Move (or Horse actions when the Horses & Stagecoach expansion is used). If a single bandit ends a round alone inside the car, that player secretly relocates the pawn beneath the locomotive, under a chosen car, or under the stagecoach (with the expansion) while other players close their eyes. Play resumes with the next schemin’ phase; the hidden location is revealed at the start of the stealin’ phase and the pawn is placed back into that car before resolving actions. If a bandit is alone in the car at the end of the game, that player gains a cash bonus plus any loot inside the car.
