Metro Simulator Beta does not work the same way as what other types of train simulator. All trains and maps are inside .000 files which makes it somewhat more like integral. Attempting to crack the .000 file is very difficult. I've tried it once and ended up in failure to run the program!
I think it is a matter of speaking to Sjoerd or Michel to answer that question.

Also, only Sjoerd, Michel and very few others can have a Devkit program for building routes, people have asked for that in that past, but the answer every time is that they can't have that.

Like I said, Metro Simulator Beta is just an 'end-user' train simulator game, the same cannot be said for Train Sim World 2.

We can ensure you that our beloved devs will give you the same answer. Really, the only way you could get the devkit is if your resume peaks the interest of Michel.

Train Sim World is also an end user simulator, a non-team person can't model an export a train into the game.
