Showing New York subway based on number of stations[edit]

It seems very odd that you’d want to list the New York subway as the top image when it is only the largest by number of station complexes and isn’t the largest by ridership or by track length or by age. I’d say ridership, number of stations and track length are all important and therefore the system that wins by 2 out of 3 (Shanghai) should be listed first. -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 15:23, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Agree! Today, however, there are 508 metro stations in operation in Shanghai 李双能 (talk) 10:41, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Missing Shanghai Metro image[edit]

The Shanghai Metro has the highest length and ridership. There is literally no reason why the Shanghai Metro image has to be removed and therefore should be brought back to the main images in this article. Aitraintheeditorandgamer (talk) 09:56, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Israeli MRT systems[edit]

Tel Aviv has recently opened its red line, which while referred to as light rail definitely counts as a metro system, since it's underground and functions much more like a metro. Haifa also has a very unique underground funicular, which I think also counts as a metro system. I think these should be added 84.229.178.65 (talk) 00:16, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
