Urban transit is any transportation going through an urban (very large city, like New York and Los Angeles) area, while a metro rail is a train-like vehicle that runs through large cities down a certain path. Nearly all metro rail systems use steel wheels running on steel rails, but some use fixed concrete guideways and rubber tires. Power can be supplied from an overhead wire or a third rail.
