This infobox is mainly for rail transit systems. For a specific service within a rail system, or for a rail system with only one route, {{Infobox rail service}} may be a better choice. For railway lines, please use {{Infobox rail line}} instead. For transit bus-only systems, consider using {{Infobox bus transit}}.

Parameters

Parameter	Required	Description
box_width	No	Width of infobox, default:22em; Note: use auto for automatic width
name	No	Name of transit system; default: PAGENAME
image	No	Filename of image for the header (typically a logo, but photo can be used if no logo is available)
alt	No	Description of image for those who cannot see it (see alt text).
imagesize	No	Size of image defined above; default:200px
caption	No	Caption for the first image
image2	No	Filename of second image for the header (allows for use of a picture if the logo was used for the first image parameter)

Number of stations	24

System map

An example from the Sochi Light Metro rapid transit system:

{{Infobox public transit
| name                 = Sochi Light Metro
| image                = Coat_of_Arms_of_Sochi_(Krasnodar_krai).png
| imagesize            = 150 px
| caption              = Bombardier Spacium train mockup
| owner                = City of Sochi
| locale               = [[Sochi]], [[Russia]]
| transit_type         = [[Medium capacity system|Light Metro]]
| lines                = 3
| stations             = 24
| operation_will_start = 2013
| system_length        = {{convert|86.4|km|mi|abbr=on}}
| track_gauge          = {{Track gauge|1520mm|allk=on}}
| map                  = {{Sochi Light Metro route diagram}}
| map_state            = collapsed
}}

If some of the row of route map made with WP:ROUTE set (not entirely) breaks apart, possibly the infobox width is too short and forcing some of the text description within the route diagram template to return. Increase the box_width parameter, or putting auto will solve this problem.
