At the moment, I don't have any detailed examples of how this would work. But, I have seen in the GDC video, an image of a tank driving under a rock formation(relevant because it's beautiful scenery), and I've seen in some BAttlefield maps and maps of other games, railyards and tracks you can't follow for more than 300m because the map ends, which is also relevant because train tracks are nice scenery.
There are two sides to this, though. The first is, how would you guys like to see rail systems in maps? EVEN if there are no trains, just part of the scenery? Tunnels going through mountains could also provide, in addition to beauty, covered approach routes, placed to set up forward bases, etc.
And secondly, having actual trains running around could be a separate discussion. Perhaps later in in the game, a couple of years from now, trains could actually have an effect on the supply system?
Personally I like airfields and runways as scenery, but since all the aircraft in PS are VTOL, there's just no way to justify it, unless it's near a ruined city from 100 years before the current lore's tech.
