How should be move forward in terms of lightrail?

[Flemmbrav]

Light rail is in a weird spot right now. With the introduction of narrowgauge trams, some light rail vehicles are in the standard sized track depot still. Some are to be found in the tram depot. In plus, the stations of the narrowgauge are not high enough to support high floor light rail vehicles. This whole situation leaves some questions:

• Should they appear in the tram or narrowgauge depot? Or should they stay in the railway depot?

• Do we need more infrastructure to support the light rail vehicles in the game?

• Do we want to support high floor light rail vehicles at all?

• How do we handle interurbans and tram-trains (and those tram-trains that use standard gauge track)?

• all trams are tram-trains, depending on how the player uses them. This can not be prevented.
• all trains are train-trams, depending on how the player uses them. This can not be prevented.
• a tram-train is a tram, hence it's narrowgauge, in the tram depot.
• a train-tram is a train. In this case, one would need to think where it fits better (narrow or standard), but that has nothing to do with it's tram capacities anymore - unless it fits a specific spot which no tram/tram-train can be found for.

Light rail is pretty much the same, except they don't literally call it a mix of tram and metro no more. For most vehicles operated on light rail, you'll find that it's either a type of vehicle used for trams and light rail, or it's used for light rail and metro. Even for Stadtbahnwagen B, you can connect it to the Tyne and Wear Metro, which would tip the scales towards metro and put it in the standard gauge depot. Essentially, just think of it as "there don't exist any light rail vehicles, rather there are trams and metros which both can be used on light rail networks, sometimes requiring minor adjustments"
