Subway Recomendations

I have planned a Metro route for a few days now while i was waiting for a solution to the two problems i have (check out the 38411 patch? thread in the general discussions section to see if you can help :) ).

Specs:

9 lines
79 stations
5 more under construction
aprox track length- 280km
2 enclosed (completely underground) lines
2 connections to regional rail (high speed lines)
Biggest station (no of lines) called Wheaton Rd with 5 lines running through (1 terminus)


Can anyone recommend any subway kit's, tutorials, stations. Anything that would help.

One request, i would like the subway tunnels to be lay'd as rail would as opposed to as a tunnel. I will take a tunnel based track but only if i really like it :p

Any suggestions cant be tested in-game due to the fact the game doesn't work and i cannot even get onto the CMP2 (more about that on the thread indicated above) but suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Matty (Big Thing)
 
Is there in the anything in the NYCTA subway kits and parts that you could use? some of the cars are really nice and the trackwork is impressive - Im not sure how close to proto the track is but cars are right on target.
 
i would go for the AJS tunnel kit at
http://www.ajsmith.nildram.co.uk/trs/tunnel01.shtml
and also i would search for the subway construction set on cmp search

The route that im planning is extensive (~40x30 baseboards) and most of that is underground. Therefore the tunnel kit would not suit the needs as it cannot be easily applied to stations or junctions.
I will download it for future application in additional projects, so for that i thank you for your time.

Could you diarect me to some of these kits?

And i thaught you would like to know that the problem is fixed now and the project has broken ground:D
