    I imagine this is how Melbournes train system was running. "Train arriving in 3 minutes" 2 minutes later "Your train has been cancelled", A moment later we see the giant engineering hand in the sky picking up our train and moving it to another train line.

    Just a note Matt, that if you get all the extra lines right away when there's less complexity, it removes that option later on when you need bridges/interchanges/carriages. Generally powering through all the line upgrades gives you more flexibility later.

    8:45 Actually, the opposite is true. The Stockholm Metro is currently adding 17something stations to the network, all of which will be underground. The reason for this is partially because of Stockholms geography, if all of it is underground you don't have to build bridges all of the time to get to Stockholms numerous islands.

    The reason why there are so many rivers here in sweden is because stockholm is by the coast and sweden has the most islands in the world. Fun fact: there is a stop in stockholm which is called "triangeln" (you can guess what that means) and it better be a triangle stop.
    EDIT: THE TRIANGELN STOP IS IN MALMÖ NOT STOCKHOLM SORRY

    Two somewhat tips;
    Highlighting the circles at the bottom allow you to quickly and easily delete an entire line
    The red line failed so often (the 14:20 design) because the trains traveling in that direction only look for stations that it can hit going that direction. To better explain it, when traveling from the square station to the “rightward” tracks, it’ll never pick up any square passengers, then once it passes the second triangle station, it’ll no longer pick up any other passengers until it reaches the end of the line.

    I noticed the trains are not picking up passengers if the line leads to a dead end, and would need to turn around before it arrived at a correct stop. If the lines are looped, then the passengers will always be picked up, because thier stop will always be forward (no dead end where train has to U-turn)

It turned out to be a good pattern that totally carried me because I could take more lines and carriages at weeks ends.

  • @zecuse

    Minor efficiency tweak, don't have lines cross each other outside of a station and try to keep all paths through stations at right or obtuse angles. Intersections outside of stations and acute angles waste time by slowing the trains down.

    Well, the Metro (or Tunnelbana) in Sweden have tunnels. But in the game tunnels are for going under water and I think thats what this is about. Because bridges and tunnels under Lake Mälaren are few on the metro (and the road system).

    4:02 the island could easily be reached. Either shorten the blue line on the left and link the circle to the end of the green line to free up a bridge or do what I did. Use all 5 bridges to make a loop from the south bank to the left island to the middle island to the square on the north bank to the new circle on the right island and back to the south bank. Use a second loop to join everything on the north bank including an overlap on the square for an interchange so diamond passengers can connect to the north bank loop. Edit: after continuing to watch I saw you took the first option. You did get hosed by not getting any more tunnels / bridges though.

    Stockholm is built on quite a lot of granite, so making tunnels for our subway *was* difficult. No idea if that's why the game gave you so few tunnels though. In the expansion of Stockholm's subway that's being built now, deep rock under Saltsjön, ("Salt lake", the water to the east of the south island "Södermalm" on the map), has forced the upcoming new station Sofia to have to become one of the deepest subway stations in the world.
