What does a Government Grant claim give, and what effects apply?

Question

Accepted Answer

It claims a route with no train cards. Curses do not affect it, and you get no company bonus, no employee bonus, and no treasure search or map purchase from it. Grant routes do count toward the Game 11 timetable. The trains come out of your own supply for that game, not the spares.
