+		Intersecting (might cause traffic jams when crossing trains need to wait)
+		Non-Intersecting (all lines cross over bridges/tunnels, but significantly more expensive and longer to build)

+	Offer for a free ticket (on selected schedule types). Fixed revenue on agreed lines. penalty when service is removed, or dissatisfactory. Only 1st class ticket sales on affected lines.
