		Underground, subway and metro are common names for a form of mass transit public transport system employing small trains, these are also called in Britain tube trains.
		Since many such systems have above-ground portions, "metro" can be used as a generalized term that includes systems and system portions that are elevated or at grade (avoiding the necessarily subterranean connotations of "underground" or "subway".) In some cities, "subway" is used only for that portion of a particular system that actually is underground.
