Rapid transit, also known as metro, subway or underground is a type of high-capacity public transport generally found in urban areas. Unlike buses or trams, rapid transit systems are electric railways that operate on an exclusive right-of-way, which cannot be accessed by pedestrians or other vehicles of any sort, and which is often grade separated in tunnels or on elevated railways.
Modern services on rapid transit systems are provided on designated lines between stations typically using electric multiple units on rail tracks, although some systems use guided rubber tyres, magnetic levitation, or monorail. The stations typically have high platforms, without steps inside the trains, requiring custom-made trains in order to avoid gaps. They are typically integrated with other public transport and often operated by the same public transport authorities. However, some rapid transit systems have at-grade intersections between a rapid transit line and a road or between two rapid transit lines. It is unchallenged in its ability to transport large numbers of people quickly over short distances with little use of land. Variations of rapid transit include people movers, small-scale light metro, and the commuter rail hybrid S-Bahn.
The name Mass Rapid Transit is used by the following specific rapid transit systems, either as an official name or otherwise:
The Taipei Metro, more commonly known as the MRT or formally as the Taipei Rapid Transit System (Chinese: 臺北大眾捷運系統; pinyin: Táiběi Dàzhòng Jiéyùn Xìtǒng), is a rapid transit system serving metropolitan Taipei in Taiwan. The system is built by the Department of Rapid Transit Systems, Taipei City Government (DORTS-Taipei) and Department of Rapid Transit Systems, New Taipei City Government (DRTS-New Taipei) and operated by the Taipei Rapid Transit Corporation (TRTC). It consists of 108 stations (117 stations if transfer stations are double-counted) and 5 main routes, operating on 131.1 kilometres (81.5 mi) of revenue track. The system carried an average of over 1.78 million passengers per day in December 2012.
The Taipei Metro is Taiwan's first metro system. Since it first began operations in 1996, the system has been effective in relieving some of Taipei's traffic congestion problems. The system has also proved effective as a catalyst for urban renewal, as well as increasing tourist traffic to outlying towns such as Tamsui. Conversions to existing railway lines were made to integrate them into the metro system.

Taipei, Taiwan has one of the most efficient and reliable MRT or public rapid transit systems in the world. Locals are used to the convenience but if you are visiting either for a short or extended time to Taipei you are in store for a comfortable, safe, and easy way to get around the city. There are 5 main lines of the Taipei Metro which consists of a mix of underground and above ground infrastructure with a total of 108 stations. This does not include the airport service as this is a separate entity called Taoyuan MRT. I highly recommend downloading either the IOS or android Taipei MRT app available in The App Store and Google Play. This will help you plan your day while you’re having a coffee in your hotel room or at breakfast. All of the stations are also searchable online with full...

This is my thesis dissertation studio final design walk through video. This metro station is one of the metro station from proposed route MEGA metro project in Ahmedabad. Station is located at Sabarmati, Ahmedabad. Station is having BRTS route parallel to it and AMTS stand is nearby therefore it is Multimodal Transit Station. If you liked it give thumbs up...!

This documentary illustrates how the Klang Valley Mass Rapid Transit (KVMRT) will change the public transport system in Greater KL.
TODAY ON 16/12/2016, Malaysia's first mass rapid transit finally open to public for free for a month. The line slated for sungai buloh-kajang line. However until july 2017 only first phase will only be open from sungai buloh to semantan station. It used the siemens inspiro trainset.
The Mass Rapid Transit or MRT is a rapid transit system forming the major component of the railway system in Singapore, spanning the entire city-state. The initial section of the MRT, between Yio Chu Kang and Toa Payoh, opened in 1987, making it the second-oldest metro system in Southeast Asia, after Manila's LRT System. The network has since grown rapidly in accordance with Singapore's aim of developing a comprehensive rail network as the backbone of the public transport system in Singapore, with an average daily ridership of 2.755 million in 2013, approximately 77% of the bus network's 3.601 million in the same period. The MRT network encompasses 152.9 kilometres (95.0 mi) of route, with 108 stations in operation, on standard gauge. The lines are built by the Land Transport Authority, a ...

National Geographic Documentary Megastructures - MRT Malaysia Urban Diggers - BBC Documentary History MRT ( Mass Rapid Transit ) (Malaysia) https://goo.gl/uDLrfr Mass Rapid Transit, better known with its acronym "MRT") is a planned 3-line mass rapid transit system in the Greater Kuala Lumpur (part of Klang Valley region) conurbation in Malaysia. It envisages a "wheel and spoke" concept comprising two northeast-southwest radial lines and one circle line looping around Kuala Lumpur. The MRT lines, when completed, will be operated as components of the Klang Valley Public Transport System. The "MRT" will not only significantly increase the current inadequate rail network but will also serve to integrate the existing rail networks and alleviate the severe traffic congestion in the Greater KL...

This is a minecart journey on the Circle Line, one of the 11 initial lines being built on the new world on the Minecart Rapid Transit server. This line was built by _MajorMagpie_ and _frozen, both moderators on the server, plus with help from others. The journey begins at C1 Station, and travels through all of the 119 stations in clockwise direction around the whole world. Stations are initially unnamed, and are coded with the line's letter (In this case, "C" for Circle stations), followed by the station's number. The official colour for this line is Dark Grey. It takes about 2 hours and 18 minutes to travel the whole line, but this timelapse is sped up to 4x speed to make the video shorter. The station used in this line is the Minecart Rapid Transit Station version 5, designed by me, Fr...
This MRT Malaysia or The MRT Sungai Buloh-Kajang Line is the ninth rail transit line and the second fully automated and driverless rail system in the Klang Valley area, Malaysia after the LRT Kelana Jaya Line.
