DTG have stated previously NYC Subway not going to happen for TSW. While MTA happy to licence for LIRR, that does not extend to the Subway particularly access to trains or the tunnel sections for research.
Licensing Issue for NYCT. If made you need the 4 train R142A followed by 4, & 5 trains R142 for the City Hall 125th segment.
