Metrobits is about the very urban transportation system, usually called metro, subway, underground railway, or rapid transit. The website includes design, fun, and technical aspects of the topic, and quality photos. Coverage is global and mostly from the passengers' perspective. Besides providing some interesting stuff, there is the mission that subway systems should be seen as more than just a means of mass transportation and that the importance of aesthetic qualities of stations and rolling stock should not be underestimated by the operators.
Since the website sprang to life in late 2004, many visitors from around the globe have contributed suggestions and information. Thanks to all that feedback, accuracy could be highly increased and many errors removed. The current information density (and the almost insane detailedness of some of the sections) are the result of that help!
