Even if you have the files, you need the editor to change them, because they are located in the Beta311.000 file.

No, it can't be done. I just did an experiment (in the released beta 3.11); I placed the file from Rijndam into the accessible Simvliet folder (and then under a subfolder "textures"), but it did not work.
Apparently, just placing the file in a subfolder (with the correct name) under the route does not work; the train still searches for it in the folder structure hidden inside the basic 000-archive. Therefore, even if you have the file, you can't make it work for the SG4 in networks in which the file wasn't already included.

I arrived at the station and ran to platform 4, where this SG4 would stop. I saw the same train engineer and he asked me if I would like to enter on the train until Molenwijk, where RijndamRail company shares the same depot with metro network. Obsiously I said yes, althought my car was bad stationed due to the race until the station to spot the train.

Fortunately in my return trip I back to Rijndam Centraal in the exact moment traffic police was arriving to my car... I almost got an traffic ticket.

I coult tell train engineer that my car was not well stationed, but he wanted to leave quickly to Molenwijk... And I couldn't wast this opportunity. Fortunately I also have SPR and metro network pass... And my local work it's near Noorderpoort.

As Rijndam is afaik based on Leiden, it should be here, appox. 6km from the sea

However, only a little south of that there are a few places in Rotterdam named Rijndam

The name is inspired on Leiden, as are a few station names on the network.
Size and shape however are purely fictional, and Leiden (sadly) doesn't have it's own rail network. ;)

All I can find (using google) is a revalidation center (located in the center of Rotterdam) that has called itself Rijndam. I did not know that before.

I think I can give a very direct answer; yes.
As you know, the station Denia is based on the real Denia, located in Spain, with its own sea port with ferries to Ibiza and Mallorca. In Metrosimulator, I build a small part of the docks, and one of the places a ferry can arrive.

Here is the real situation; https://goo.gl/maps/rSfiWp7kLev

So separate from the fact that I used Leiden as inspiration for the Rijndam name, in the metrosimulator surroundings, Rijndam and Denia are connected by Metro, and Denia is (also in Metrosimulator) right next to the sea.

If Rijndam was actually called Leiden, then Denia would probably have been called Katwijk or Noordwijk, as those are the places at sea close to Leiden :D
