Playing a game on the Portugal map and I build a one hex long track from one city to the next. This track was removed at the end of the round as an incomplete link?

I looked at the special rules for Portugal and I don't see anything that would would change the track rules.

This is part of the base rules. During the phase when income is paid out, all incomplete links are removed.

It is a complete route according the rules. From one city to another city. That's why I'm confused. It was a complete link.

Oops, sorry! I didn't read your post carefully enough. I'm not sure what the issue is, then.

If this relates to a specific game, and your post suggests that it does, you'd be doing the designer and the rest of us a big favour by filing a bug report against that specific game. If there is indeed an underlying issue, posting here - while cathartic - isn't going to get it fixed.

I wanted to make sure that I didn't have some fundamental misunderstanding of the rule. A bug report has already been created.

I've never had that issue on the Portugal map (or any map). Are you sure you completed the link? It is possible to develop the hex next to the city you plan to link into, but not actually connect your rail line into said target city.

Replay the move and make sure your hexagon was oriented correctly. One time I placed a one link with a curve and i oriented the curve the wrong way and I didn't realize it. This wouldn't matter in an in-person game, but clearly matters here
