Tikal is my current favorite.

Have you played Stephenson's Rocket?  I can't get enough of it.

Yes, a number of times.  Jury's still out on this one.  I'll definitely play it
again, but the scoring system tends to be completely incomprehensible to
beginners, and what you need to emphasize seems to change dependant upon number
of players in the game (which keeps the scoring incomprehensible even after a
few games).  The common complaint is that even after playing a game, many
players are still not sure how to proceed in the next game.  My wife and I like
railroad games in general, so we'll keep trotting it out for now.
