Trams that Act like Metros around the World (Top 10 Underground lightrails/streetcars)

Is this a tram, lightrail or a subway??
For many light rails or trams they may act like a subway or a metro once they hit downtown portions of their cities. Some of them have more metro elements than light rail!
So are these systems subway, metro, light rail or trams? Or a combination? What other systems are out there that are cool looking, that remind you a lot of trams but are underground.
Check out Part I which has another Top 10 - trams that act like metros

As late as the mid-1950s, Rochester NY (USA) had such a system -- the rolling stock was PCC cars, which ran on their own above-ground tracks (not city streets) in the outer neighborhoods before going into about 1 mile of tunnel to the middle of downtown, as I recall. My mom took me and my kid brother for a day trip to visit the city, and since she knew the system was soon to be abandoned, she made sure for us to get a ride on it. (Mom was a tram enthusiast -- my earliest memory is of a streetcar ride with her in downtown Buffalo, our hometown, during the last month of service in 1950, when I was 2.5 yrs old and she was about 5 months pregnant with my little brother. The old streetcar -- a Peter Witt model in orange livery -- and her swelling tummy were the standout points of the day, evidently!)

Thanks for including the Subway-Surface lines in Philadelphia. In the tunnel they share with the Market-Frankford subway, they act as the "local" while the subway is the "express".

We have to give thanks for those lines being in tunnels. When National City Lines took over the Philadelphia Transportation Co. back in the 1950s they (of course!) immediately started ripping out street-running trolleys in favor of GM buses. They couldn't get rid of the subway-surface cars because buses couldn't run in the tunnels, both because there was no way to provide proper ventilation and because clearances are too narrow for non-tracked vehicles. Today the S-S lines are some of the most heavily used of all SEPTA's routes. There's an initiative to replace the existing 1981-vintage Kawasaki cars with low-floor articulateds.

The metro in Rotterdam is a metro. The metro drives as light rail/train a lot. It's not a tram. You could have mentioned Den Haag instead. The tram acts like a metro AND train there for a lot of parts. It's an awesome tram network. 👍

While the streetcar/LRV system was kinda invented in Boston, USA (or Budapest depending on argument), the Germans have perfected the Stadtbahn system. So many networks with a core underground section! Toronto is about to open a large light rail subway in 2022. The Eglinton Crosstown Line (Line 5) will complement the 4 existing subway lines and 11 tram routes.

[@mbstarburstmapper3842]

Fun fact about the Volgograd underground tram system: Above ground trams drive right-sided, like normal trams, but underground they drive on the left side. This happens because older trams had the doors only on the right side, so the tunnels coming from above ground cross over before coming to the first underground stations and this cross over happens so smoothly that it's difficult to notice. Note: That is valid only for the old part of the system, as the later extension does not have this cross over. This actually was a problem, since trams with 2 driver-cabins were rare and older trams couldn't do the new route. Fun fact N°2: Also the old underground tram stations were built like metro stations because they were meant to be eventually converted into actual metro stations. This never happened and will likely never happen.

But the Ruhrpott is a tramfans paradise... You can travel the whole length solely by streetcar (with interchanges and even gauge brakes) - roughly 100km one way. And Wuppertal is around the corner, too...

[@qmsarge]

In 2008 there was Tram Service between Amsterdam and Amstelveen. The tram went on normal street tracks for a while and from one station it changed its 'Avatar'. It used to run at a higher speed like a normal two-car metro train till Amstelveen. The track was also shared with metro train services. I don't know how the tram company and the metro company did the coordination work to run both the services.

The reason the Rotterdam metro looks so much like a subway is because it was designed as such but was later upgraded with lightrail style bi-modalism to expand cheaply into the suburbs and re-use heavy rail infrastructure. I'ts more of a metro with level crossings rather than a tram with tunnels.

[@SpotterCrazyperson]

It's a metro, and I'm glad the light rail parts are a real light rail or train track. The metro would drive very slow if it was different. Line E is awesome, the metro drives as a light rail on high speed (so more like a train) to Den Haag and Hook of Holland

From a local, in Rotterdam it's actually the other way around: a metro acting like a tram. It's a Subway system of 5 lines, in which lines A & B are running underground except in eastern-Rotterdam, where they both run as a tram/lightrail. In The Netherlands there is a special term for it, being Sneltram (Fast/Speed-tram if translated to English)

Επίσης η "διαλειτουργικότητα" δηλαδή το να μπορεί το τραμ / laight rail να χρησιμοποιεί το δίκτυο μετρό ή σιδηροδρόμου δίνει εξαιρετική "κλαδικότητα" και επιλογές στην αστική και προαστιακή μετακίνηση.

Philadelphia only uses PCCs on one line, Route 15 which operates primarily on Girard Avenue. Service on all other lines including the two suburban routes (Media and Sharon Hill) has been using Kawasaki cars since the 1980s. The Route 15 cars are technically called PCC-IIs following a major rebuild by Brookville, but are currently mostly OOS due to the need for yet another refurbishment. The Kawasakis are scheduled for replacement with new low-floor articulateds some time near the end of this decade.

The Brussels network is a bit complicated to "qualify". It's a mix between regular tramways, premetro, half-premetro, chrono-lines, express-lines... Here's a better picture : - Lines 3, 4, 7 are premetro + chrono (almost entirely on separate right-of-way, served by long low-floor tramways only). - Lines 25 and 51 are premetro (each uses a portion of the premetro network, but above ground can encounter trafic) - Line 9 is chrono, and uses only one underground station - Line 19 is regular tramway and uses only one underground station - Lines 39 and 44 used to be express-lines, and use only one underground station To keep it simple, i'd say only 5 lines qualify as premetro, but 3 are going to disappear when the new metro line 3 starts operating in 2023 in the existing premetro tunnel.
