My rating so far is only for the Old West map. This is a devilish challenge for experienced TtR players (and might be a fair entry point for novice players). On the one hand, you can't jump to a spot to claim a second set of tracks if it looks like you're about to be blocked, and struggling to not give an opponent a lot of points is rough. But on the other hand, it makes branching your route more attractive, and it becomes immediately apparent when you should ditch a route and grab new tickets. I'm not sure I need to own this one but I wouldn't turn down another play.

France: Doubled the angst of wondering if people are going to take the tracks you want. Most tracks have no colour and you have to announce the colour you want it to be when picking up cards. You can’t place on a track that hasn’t had a colour chosen for it.

Both sides provide some good challenge. The France side can be tedious and leads to extended playtime. The Old West side can lead to players getting cut off from parts of the map entirely at lower player counts, but at higher player counts this is definitely the better side.
