Rijndam is a fictional city in Dutch style, located along the river Rhine, with a metro network inspired by several different Dutch and non-Dutch metro networks.
 
There are 4 main lines:
 
*Line M1: Molenwijk - Panbos
*Line M2: Central Station - Monument
*Line M3: Central Station - Rijnland Ziekenhuis (Hospital)
*Line M4: Central Station - Rijndam Airport
 
 
 
== Line M1 ==
 
Line M1 runs above ground from Molenwijk to Simvlietlaan and from Nobelplein to Panbos. Between Simvlietlaan and Nobelplein, line M1 runs underground. <br />
 
The section from Nobelplein to Panbos was once a local railwayline, starting at a station at Rijndam Noorderpoort. A few years ago, the Rijndam city council has decided to connect this railway to the metro network. This was done to eliminate the need for passenger interchange, to increase the frequency of services on the line, and to allow for the demolition and redevelopment of the site of the former train station. <br />
Power on this section is supplied by overhead whires; at Nobelplein, line M1 metro's switch from 3rd rail to overhead power supply. The railway section has ZUB train protection; the switch from ATB to ZUB is done at Noorderpoort. <br />
Between Noordvliet and Panbos, the line runs on a single track.
 
 
<br />
 
== Line M2 ==
 
Line M2 runs underground from Central Station to Westpoort. After Westpoort, the line continues above ground to Station Westplein and Monument. At Station Westplein, metro's switch to Sneltram mode for the last part to Monument.<br />
Metro's on line M2 in the direction Central Station will switch to line M3 upon arriving.
 
== Line M3 ==
 
Line M2 runs underground from Central Station to Westpoort. After Westpoort, the line continues above ground to Station Westplein and Rijnland Ziekenhuis (Hospital). At Station Westplein, metro's switch to Sneltram mode for the last part to Rijnland Hospital. <br />
Metro's on line M3 in the direction Central Station will switch to line M2 upon arriving.
 
== Line M4 ==
 
Line M4 connects the city with Rijndam Airport. It runs underground from Central Station to Noorderpoort, and then continues above ground to Rijndam Airport. Shortly before reaching the aiport, the line returns underground, to terminate under the Airport terminal building containing terminals 1,2 and 3 (passengers for terminal 4 can change here for a shuttle service). <br />
As with line M1, the section outside of the city uses a converted railway line, with power supply by overhead whires (the switch from 3rd rail to overhead whires is done after the line surfaces leaving Noorderpoort) and ZUB train protection. Near the tunnel entrance, a small portion of the former connection to the old site of the Noorderpoort Train station can still be seen.<br />
 
Line M4 has its own depot at the airport, using the site of a former underground cargo terminal. <br />
Trains on line M4 start at the airport, run to Central Station via Garenmarkt, and back to the airport via Nationale Opera; a counter-clockwise loop trough the city centre. This is done in order to give a stations on the city centre ring a direct connection to and from the airport.
