Actually, Airlines did get a broader release through Abacus, a German game company. Come to think of it, I don't think Airlines was one of the the White Wind titles at all. While there aren't tons of copies certainly, it shouldn't be *too* hard to find an original Airlines if you really wanted it.
In my opinion, Union Pacific is a strictly superior version of Airlines. Airlines had a number of graphical usability issues. The UP is definitely a nice addition, and the only rule that got lost - the sabotage rule - is hardly missed.
This sort of republised, improved version of good games certainly happens quite a bit.
