    Hello is there any way you guys can get licensing for routes through 2 transit agencies in southern California and another for BNSF (US routes)

    1. Metro Los Angeles for their light rail lines, (they currently have 5 light rail lines) most notably their Blue line being their oldest and 1st line its 22 miles from Downtown LA to Long Beach CA

    2. Metrolink commuter rail (similar to caltrain)
    &
    3. BNSFs Harbor Subdivision

    Is this possible in any way?

    They already have a bnsf license meaning they can create any route. Dtg were unable to get a metrolink license i believe. They couldn't get it for tsc so unable for tsw. When tocs say no, dtg have to respect that. Most licenses in the us are unobtainable simply because the tocs say no and don't want their trains in the game for various reasons.

    We don't know the stipulations of the license DTG have with BNSF so I would err on the side of caution and say that DTG and BNSF have an agreement so further routes and locos are more likely rather than "DTG can do anything BNSF" as this may not be the case.
