description Mexican Train Dominoes Overview
Mexican Train is a domino game in which players build lines of matching tiles outward from a shared central starting tile. Each player may maintain a personal train, while the communal Mexican Train can generally be played on by anyone; marked trains may also become available to opponents under the rules. The game is commonly played with double-twelve dominoes and accommodates groups larger than many traditional domino variants.
