    If it has significant underground stations then unlikely as DTG have admitted to struggling with light baking in TSW.

    The other big if would be licensing or access for research, if the operator decided they don’t want their infrastructure and train systems replicated in a game for security reasons.

    And yes, OP, you would get your premise over much better using some punctuation and paragraphs (not wanting to be the grammar police here ;)).
