This applies to all domino games - if you've played any type of dominoes before, skip to the Preparation section.Įach time a player places a domino on the table in Mexican Train, it must conforms to normal domino play. Sets specifically marketed for the play of Mexican Train Dominoes usually have differently coloured little plastic trains that are used to mark each player's train. These can be anything but coins are commonly used - say a penny for each player's train and a 20 pence coin or a 'nickel' for the Mexican Train. Secondly, two types of marker are required for the game. Hubs range from expensive manufactured items that go 'Toot Toot' when pressed to home-made efforts that take only a couple of minutes to cut out from a piece of cardboard. Firstly, a special hub is used that has a slot in the middle for the starting double and 8 slots around its edge to start each domino train. Unlike most other games of dominoes, Mexican Train requires some other equipment.

Each set has 91 dominoes and we recommend that dominoes with coloured spots are used because otherwise it becomes difficult to match dominoes at a glance.

Mexican Train Dominoes are played with a standard set of Double Twelve dominoes.
