What We’ve Been Wondering (And Looking Up) About Mexican Train Dominoes
Exploring this product made us curious about the game’s origins and how it evolved into the popular version people play today.
Is Mexican Train actually from Mexico?
Surprisingly, no. Most sources suggest the game was created in the U.S. as a variation of traditional domino games, though it may have been inspired by older “train-style” domino rules.
Why is it called Mexican Train then?
The name likely refers to a thematic “extra train” that all players can build on, giving the game more openings and making it quicker and more social.
Why do players use a central hub?
The hub helps keep the starting tile and all train lines visually organized, especially in larger groups.
How many players can enjoy Mexican Train?
Typically 2 to 8 players, but hubs like this one accommodate up to 12 for bigger gatherings.
Why We Love It
We love how a simple wooden centerpiece can elevate the entire experience of Mexican Train. It adds clarity, organization, and a touch of craftsmanship to a game known for bringing big groups together.
