Subways are usually meant for within city limits to relieve congestion. Not for intercity, so it’s irrelevant if Texas is big.
Unless you mean that land with rails within city limits already exists. In that case grade level crossings are a major hindrance.

The problem with grade level crossings, even if the lights are adjusted, is always rush hour traffic.
One good example of this is line 512, St Clair W of the TTC. It’s a street car on well separated tracks but with many intersections due to it crossing dense neighbourhoods in addition to dedicated left/U turn lanes for 2x1 lanes worth of cars. Despite being only 2x1 lanes, the road being on the E-W makes it a major thoroughfare. The congestion can get so bad that at certain intersections the street car can get stuck for ten minutes or more until the blockage clears.
