Hello all! Welcome to my rendition of the Phoenix Valley Metro Public Transit Network! The way I have decided to set up the system is as follows:
Valley Metro Rail: The valley metro rail service is inspired off of the commuter rails like the commuter lines in Chicago or the Metro North in NYC. The way I composed it is to have a variation of commuter trains, with a few medium/longer distance train services to the other parts of the state. I may extend the lines to places like Tucson and Flagstaff but I haven't decided if I should make this a Valley only network or if I should have basic statewide services as well. Let me know below which path I should take!
Valley Metro Subway: The valley metro subway service is inspired off of Chicago's "L" network, with all of the trains in the system running above grade. In this fantasy system, the highways in the valley do not exist, so I made the subways run where the highways are supposed to be, and they are set up as a way for people to get around the valley as they would use the highways. I may have some other subway services that run through parts that don't have highways, since the valley is so big and the system wouldn't be as efficient as needed if it just ran where the highways are.
Valley Metro Tram/Light Rail: The valley metro tram/light rail services are well, pretty self explanatory. The trams will be dedicated to transporting people around the immediate area, whereas the light rail will be for more long distance travel. I haven't decided if I am going to run the light rail and the subway parallel to each other, meaning I am going to have them serve the same purpose, or if I should use the subway as more of a commuter style system like Chicago's
Please feel free to let me know what you think about my system! It is still very much a work in progress so, no suggestion will go ignored!
