By US standards, it would be, but by US standards, the ICE is a light rail system, too. The S-Bahn is way to heavy to be a light rail system in anybody's book, including in the US, I think. Same goes for the ICE. The Berlin Strassenbahn would be another story, however. Many people were trapped in trains stranded between stations. Angry passengers opened the doors, got out and walked the tracks to the nearest station, continuing by bus, subway, or taxi. It took about 3 hours after electricity was restored to have some sort of traffic running. Similar situations have happened here on the London Underground. |
