I wanted to organize my tickets in such a way that I can just open the box, and start playing. I don't want to look in the rulebooklet how to seperate the tickets according to the expansions symbols and such. This is what I did: I seperated all my tickets into three decks, and they fit nicely into the box of the base game..

- The original tickets ("The small deck").

- The Big Cities 1912. I took all the cards with 2 big cities on them. 36 cards total, which means that all possible routes between 2 big cities are included. If a card only has one big city on it (7 cards), I've put it in the next deck ...

- Mega Europe 1912 ("The large deck") These are all the remaining cards of the 1912 expansion. It has the 12 long routes, so I decided to call this deck "Mega Europe". Even though it misses some of the big cities tickets, so in this way it's a bit more like "Europe Expanded".


Do you guys think I'm unbalancing the card deck distribution here? I've always felt that the destination tickets are quite random and I suppose a few cards missing (or extra) isn't such a big deal.

My deck is simple:

- The Big Cities (45 tickets): all tickets with Big Cities logo. We always play with this one when we are 2 or 3 players

- The "European Grand Tour" deck (44 + 12): all 44 regular tickets + all 12 long routes tickets. We use them for 4-5-player games. 3 regular + 2 long tickets are dealt. Each player must keep at least 2 of the initial tickets and discard at least one of the long routes.

I never bothered distinguishing the original tickets from the 1912 ones.
