Metros run in the city, suburban railways run to outer suburbs;<br/>2. Metro stations are denser, suburban rails only have normally one to two stations in each town;<br/>3. The frequency of trains in metro is high, but suburban railways normally run with a timetable;<br/>4. Metros are designed for passengers to stand, suburban trains are designed mainly for seating;<br/>5. Metros are separated from all other traffic, but suburban rails commonly are built to main line standards and share tracks with inter-city and freight trains.</p><p>However, East Rail Line, West Rail Line and Tung Chung Line in Hong Kong's MTR have some characteristics of one and some of the other, then are they considered metro lines of suburban lines?</p><p>Those three lines connect outer suburbs to the city, and their stations are far apart in the city (about 2 to 3 metro stations for 1 on those lines), but the frequency of trains are all very high, operating at less than 8-minute interval at daytime, and the trains have interior mainly for standing.</p><p>In addition, East Rail Line uses main-line tracks, sharing tracks with inter-city and freight trains. West Rail Line was built to main-line standard, planning to share tracks with inter-city and freight trains but the plan is abandoned so there will be only West Rail Line trains in the future. Tung Chung Line does not run on main-line but it shares track with the airport railway.</p></div><img src="http://pixel.quantserve.com/pixel/p-89EKCgBk8MZdE.gif" border="0" height="1" width="1"
