Here's a passenger-only, underground-only, rail only, single-level map, which I used to teach myself how to build rail networks. I think I've succeeded in creating reasonably efficient transport: It moves 4 million people per year! I wonder if I've set any simutrans records for volume of passengers moved...
This is the busiest part of the map: It's the first of three hub stations I built. it's pretty obvious that it's sprawling, and badly, sort-of immaturely designed.
This is the same station, zoomed out:
Some statistics for the station: Max. 218 convoys per month, and almost 100,000 passengers!
A more mature stattion design: Here, my largest city (280,000 ciizens) is served by a single station. I think any other method for dealing with an urban centre of that size would be sheer madness.
A reasonable design for a hub station: This one only serves around 120 trains... slightly more than Half that of Glasgow Hub, however the station entries and exits are slightly bottlenecked. I also built the entire network on the same level, which means lines must cross each other very often :(
A map of the whole network:
More statistics: More than a million citizens, and over 4 million travelled
