Now there is a big contradiction arising. How come places like
Kharkov, Nizhny Novgorod, Tashkent, Novosibirsk have Metros built skipping the Metrotram and in some places not having a tram of any kind. That scheme above was planned for an ideal socialist деревня as it becomes a city over a hundred

Yerevan is a joke. It had a tram (maybe even a rapid tram, as these are widespread) in 1976 they started boring the metro tunnels for the conversion to a Metro tram. However national pride of

Volgograd only reached part two. I never been to Krivoi Rog (although I shall next time I'm off to Volhynia), but as far as I know it had no tram whatsoever so that was built as a Metrotram from the start.

Lets take it one at a time. Rapid transit and public transport. Trams, unless they are metro trams come under the latter. Althought in the USSR there exists the following criteria for public rail systems:

Russian wikipedia. It would be nice if some of you could help out on that page. (

Then to avoid the traffic tunnels are bored under the centre and, in segments, the tram becomes a fully rapid transit system. (Which is why we should NOT add Kiev Tram to the template)
