1005:. That is because there isn't that one S-Bahn. While most systems can be considered commuter rail, a few systems like the S-Bahn Berlin also have features of metro services. Others like the S-Bahn Magdeburg are just rebranded regional trains, sometimes with a few more stops in the city. This article should be an overview about the systems in Germany and Austria, not about commuter rail in general.--

It seems this article was moved from "S-Bahn" (which would be a reasonable title for an article on suburban rail in
Germany, or the German-speaking world (Germany, Austria, parts of Switzerland) to "S-Train", which AFAICS has no particular meaning, certainly not as a distinct category of urban rail,

page could have been expanded with a more thorough description taking in consideration how commuter rail is done outside of the USA, or the generic S-Bahn and
Commuter Rail articles be merged. The whole discussion about what differentiates a S-Bahn system from other commuter rail is flawed, because

These systems are always referred to as "S-Bahn's" in
English, this is the correct term. You cannot just invent a word just because you think the current title of the article is "not English". S-Bahn is a term used in German speaking countries, other terms are used in other countries (RER etc.).

Good question. Seems this talk page has been pointing out the problem with this article for nigh on half a decade now: it's conflating the S-bahns of
Germany with a supposed type of rail system that seems to be a Knowledge (XXG) invention. It might be best to delete and start again.

Copenhagen S-train. I doubt a little that we shall call the general article S-train because no article about any system (except Copenhagen S-train) are named S-train. It was however discussed on

there are systems that confute each of the often listed specialties of an S-Bahn/S-train network (for example, trains running on separate dedicated tracks, or high service frequency).

The article also seems to be arguing for some unique status for these railways, though the characteristics listed for them are common to many suburban rail systems (London's
