Yes, it would be a stand-alone line in relation to lines T1 and T2. Although the Denia line remains accessible for metro rolling stock, and therefore a track-connection does exist between the different lines, transporting trams trough the metro network would not be an option; as you know, the KTM trams do not fit along the metro 3rd rails. ;)

Will you use KTM Citylink for this option?

Yes, that tram would be ideal for this line.

If it’s possible you could also make the Denia line like the rijngouwelijn was planned: rush hour services with metro stock (line M4 would be expanded) and all other services with tram stock.

But the platforms can't reach the metros.

If you like, I could add some temporary scaffolding style platforms to the line. That would create the suggestion that the transformation is still in progress or just about to be finished (a temporary separate platform to keep services running, while the main platform is lowered for the tram), allowing you to run metro rolling stock too.

This screenshot is just an example / experimental test; I did not save it into the network.

I don't know how in a space of 2 years they can build 2 underground lines and re-electrify a 5km stretch of track, but it happens in Rijndam... :|

Also, on the airport shuttle, conversion to rubber-tyre operation should be in 2018, when the line is extended to Long-Term Parking Zone 10

2019 is such a busy year... :lol:

Also, I would like there to be Rijndam 1994, mainly because the TBAs (I would like to see TBAs with line numbers in 1994) and SG2s with M 'moustache' livery

Yes, it would not be too different to 2006, but it would be such things as upgrades, city loop, pre-ranstad/post-ranstad Noorderpoortlijnen and older main lines as stuff to compare 1985 and 2006, with 1994 as a mid-point
