Sid Meier's Railroads!
I've experienced this problem too and found that the official patch '(http://downloads.2kgames.com/railroads/RailroadsPatch110.zip' (http://downloads.2kgames.com/railroa...sPatch110.zip)) helped a lot. Also I was advised to set the '/LARGEADDRESSAWARE' switch on the executable which stops the game from bombing out if it needs more than 2GB of memory. Hope that this helps you! -- MatthewG
