VTA Light Rail and the term "subway"
When referring to the template options for WikiProject Trains on talk pages, the parameter "subway=yes" marks the page as part of the descendent Rapid Transit WikiProject. This could include surface or underground lines, light or heavy rail, or even a bus or monorail-based rapid transit system. The term "subway" is confusing and is possibly a leftover from the early days of the project when it mainly or exclusively covered subways. By their very nature, most if not all light rail projects are likely to come under the blanket category of rapid transit -=# Amos E Wolfe talk #=- 21:53, 11 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Thought that might be the case, but wanted to be sure. Thank you. --John (User:Jwy/talk) 21:55, 11 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Additional: Template:WikiProject Trains has a list of all the parameters which can be included and a brief explanation. -=# Amos E Wolfe talk #=- 21:57, 11 January 2016 (UTC)
