Goods can be picked up from industries and delivered to industries, cities, landmarks, warehouses and harbors. There are 48 different types of goods. Only a few are available from the start, and the others become available gradually. Each good is released in a certain era and can only be hauled by engines from that era or later. A good is not released immediately at the beginning of an era, but only when a city starts demanding it, at which point all industries of that type will be opened.

Each good can only be transported using the corresponding wagon, and each wagon can only hold one type of good. A wagon can be sold at 70% of its purchase price.
