UK EDITION: Must trains and trucks always start from their respective ‘UK Rail’ and ‘UK Road’ Starts?

Any train or truck loaded from ‘Container Handling’ must start its journey from this ‘Start’. There are exceptions, however, in the case of some trucks:

i. An unloaded (=empty) truck can be placed by a player to start from any one of the 3 Railheads. An empty truck can then receive/load one container dropped off by a train and move towards the intended Customer. If both containers have not been unloaded at that Railhead, the train then continues its journey to the next Railhead to drop off its remaining container.

ii. If a player is fortunate enough to pick up an (Air & Sea) card awarding him/her a “container of British-made goods”, an empty truck can be placed to start its journey from the UK Factory. This is a very good card to receive because a relatively short delivery can earn a relatively high income.
