"Monopoly" Memories

[Perry Trunick]

Hasbro will launch its new Here and Now edition of the board game Monopoly on September 14th. Fans voted on which landmarks would be used for the properties on the new board. The four railroads featured on the original board will be replace with airports. Can you recall the names of those railroads? I remember as a kid always wanting to land on the Pennsylvania Railroad because that was the railroad my father worked for. Only two of the other railroads had names (Reading and B&O) the last railroad went by the name Short Line Railroad.

What's your favorite memory of Monopoly?

Will Hasbro be adding a new "Chance" card to go with the new airlines on the game board? "Lost luggage in major security screening mishap in Atlanta -- go to free parking and see if someone will give you a ride to the nearest department store where you can re-stock your clothing, liquid makeup, gels and hair tonics."

and strangely enough, Cleveland is the cheapest low-rent property on the new board.

I guess we could have been "jail"
