Pittsburgh

Back after a break with a system in Pennsylvania. Pittsburgh is practically overrun with train tracks, yet contains only two rail lines today with mostly shared rights-of-way other than the underground downtown section, plus two funicular railroads. I've presented four new regional lines to unify the system (seven if you count branches) and connect to Pittsburgh's Amtrak station, providing service to Chicago, New York / Philadelphia, Washington, and intermediate stations.

Lines
  • Yellow
    • First branch: 50 miles, 22 stations
    • Second branch: 47 miles, 21 stations
  • Green:
    • First branch: 20 miles, 10 stations
    • Second branch: 20 miles, 8 stations
  • Cyan: 
    • First branch: 23 miles, 10 stations
    • Second branch: 9 miles, 7 stations
  • Purple: 50 miles: 19 stations
