Talk:Tram-train

message: In Melbourne, Australia, there are trams that can run on the train system under the name Light Rail.
But the lines are no longer used by trains. This is not sharing, rather conversion.
The British systems Manchester Metrolink and Tyne & Wear Metro were similar conversions.
More information on train-trams and tram-trains can be found here: http://citytransport.info/Share.htm
Could "Schnellbahn" (spelling?) from Karlsplaz, Wien (Vienna), Austria to Baden be considered Tram-train? --78.0.95.141 (talk) 21:17, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I took out Oslo from the list as the trams in Oslo only share tracks with the metro. That kind of sharing also exists in other cities, for example Amsterdam, (or Vienna; they call it 'pre-metro', and U6 metro line actually uses tram rolling stock - --78.0.95.141 (talk) 21:17, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm going to remove Melbourne from the list. Tram-train refers to trams running on mainline railways, not trams running on converted sections of closed railways. Since Melbourne's railways are a different gauge (except for regional/interstate goods lines) it's fairly safe to assume that this sort of operation won't be coming to Melbourne any time in the forseeable future. invincible 00:31, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Aha, in that case the line in Vienna I mentioned above does not qualify... --78.0.95.141 (talk) 21:17, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Removal 

message: There also is/was a proposal to use tram-train vehicles on part of the Midland Metro (the Wednesbury - Brierley Hill route) so as to allow for rail freight on the line. Aboodoo (talk) 17:29, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I would like to propose (and avoid edit war) removing St Albans from this article, while it was listed in many local newspapers as a 'Tram-Train' it is a proposed conversion to Light rail including segregating it from the national rail network, removing signalling and possibly lowering the voltage. http://www.dft.gov.uk/consultations/open/2010-05/consultation.pdf in this sense its a tram network not a tram-train network. 83.104.138.141 (talk) 04:33, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Tram-trains in the UK 

message: What is the difference between a tram-train and a train? Is it just a question of branding (as "light rail"'s key distinction appears to be its separation from the main rail system), or is there a technical way to distinguish what belongs here from what doesn't?
