Meaning
A light rail vehicle, a tram-like train that typically runs on tracks within a city or between nearby towns, often with its own right of way. In conversation it commonly refers to public transit, commuting, or city travel, and can signal arrival, waiting at a stop, or a journey by train. It frequently appears in messages about trips, delays, or urban life. It can also stand in generically for rail transport where a heavier train is not meant. Usage overlaps with other train symbols, so the specific vehicle type is not always clear.
