Instead of putting cards on the warehouses, you could use the scoring track to simulate how many cards there is in a warehouse.

When a player draws a card, he chooses any colour to move one step forward on the track. All players can now easily see which warehouse has the most cards and how many.

So when you choose to take all of the cards, just look at the scoring track, and draw that many cards from the deck.

This method makes all cards circulate as usual with no cards stuck in the warehouses. And you get a better overview.

One concern I could think of is if all the train cards are gone (from the draw pile AND the discard pile), then you probably wouldn't know of it and continue to increment the counter when you should be flushing all of the cards from all of the warehouses back to form a draw pile. It is a genuine concern in a 5p game.


Otherwise, counting the # of train cards on there isn't too big an issue. You already need to ask how many train cards someone has in hand, or how many destination tickets they have as well.
