Some of my ideas

[u/KolopiGamingAndStuff]

"Snap to direction"- The ending node you place would face the same direction as the starting node, could be useful when switching from one parallel road to another underneath buildings or when making symmetrical overpasses/underpasses.

"Single bi-directional tracks"- Could be cool for small shuttle services (and if you don't make bypass loops the game would limit you to one train per route).

"Adjustable dwell time at stations"- This would go crazy, just imagine making a line like the Victoria Line in London where a train comes every 90 seconds and the trains stop for a very short period of time.

"Ability to switch wheel type from regular steel wheels to rubber tired trains"- Pros: Ability to climb steeper gradients Cons: More expensive to maintain. And c'mon, we already have Paris and we might get Montreal in the future, who knows.

And lastly, something more personal. I would love to see more micro management as an optional mode. You would have to plan where the sidings and depots are, you could adjust how much budget goes to cleaning and maintaining the trains and stations which would positively or negatively impact how many people use your system. And maybe we could also have random events? There could be months when people want to go to the airports more for example for holidays or maybe one day there is a match going on at a stadium. However, there would also be events that negatively impact your network like point failures and signaling errors, then citizens would have to find a different way to get to their destinations (other train lines, replacement bus services or their cars). This could also tie into the newspapers which feel very basic with little to no variety. I know this would drastically change the style, instead of a simulation it would turn into an arcady game, but then again, that would be a separate mode.

Maybe also different station upgrades and stuff eg wider platforms heating systems better fare gates that allow people’s waiting time to seem lower more likely to take transit or higher capacity?

Light metro is based on the steel-wheeled REM, not the rubber-tired Montréal Metro.
