The concept of the MRT (Mass Rapid Transit) system began to take shape in the mid-20th century, with the first system opening in Tokyo, Japan, in 1927. However, the modern MRT systems, specifically designed for urban transit, gained prominence in the 1970s with the opening of the Washington Metro in 1976. Various cities around the world have since developed their own MRT systems, adapting the concept to meet local transportation needs.

The capacity of a Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) system can vary significantly depending on the design and specifications of the train cars. Generally, each MRT train car can accommodate between 150 to 300 passengers, including both seated and standing passengers. A typical MRT train, which may consist of multiple cars, can transport several hundred to over a thousand passengers per trip. Therefore, the total capacity of an MRT system depends on the number of trains and cars in operation.
The MRT (Mass Rapid Transit) train system was first developed in Tokyo, Japan, where the Tokyo Metro began operations in 1927. This system served as a model for many urban rail transit systems worldwide. The concept of rapid transit has since evolved and spread to numerous cities around the globe, adapting to local needs and technologies.
