Use of 'rapid transit' vs 'heavy rail'

[edit]

Surely both 'light rail' and 'heavy rail' would fall under the subset of 'rapid transit', and I feel like saying rapid transit, then light rail is likely confusing for readers, regardless of semantics. Dmartin969 (talk) 05:03, 8 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Dmartin969: From Rapid transit: Rapid transit, also known as heavy rail, metro, subway, tube, or underground, is a type of high-capacity public transport generally found in urban areas.
I suggest you ask whoever wrote that line. Cards84664 (talk) 12:30, 8 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
