Brief introduction of rail transit:

Rail transit refers to a kind of vehicle or transportation system that needs to run on a specific track for operating vehicles. In the national standard "Common Terms and Expressions of Urban Public Transport", urban rail transit is defined as "the general name of fast and large-capacity public transport which is usually powered by electric energy and operated by wheel and rail".

With the diversified development of train and railway technology, rail transit presents more and more types, which are widely used not only in long-distance land transportation, but also in short-distance urban public transportation.

Ordinary rail transit includes traditional railways (ordinary railways, intercity railways and municipal railways), subways, light rails and trams, as well as new rail transit systems such as magnetic levitation track system and monorail system. In China's national standard "General Terms for Urban Public Transport", urban rail transit is defined as "the general term for fast and large-capacity public transport which is usually powered by electric energy and operated by wheel and rail."
