This is a route-map template for a United States railway.
- For information on using this template, refer to Template:Routemap.
- For pictograms used, see Commons:BSicon/Catalogue.
Usage
[edit]This template should be added to all Route Diagram Templates of United States railways, unless a more-specific category or template is appropriate.
It will automatically include the diagram in Category:Templates for railway lines of the United States.
Adding an optional parameter will include the railway name as a link, for example,
{{US-railway-routemap|Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway}}
will change the first line of the template to:
The optional named parameter |type= will change “a United States railway” to “a United States alternate text”. For example,
{{US-railway-routemap|type=light rail line}}
will change the first line of the template to:
and,
{{US-railway-routemap|BMT Broadway Line|type=[[rapid transit|subway]]}}
will change the first line of the template to:
The optional named parameter |display= will replace the text of the article link. If display is set to either I or i the article link will automatically be italicized. This is useful for named train services. For example,
{{US-railway-routemap|Heartland Flyer|display=''Heartland Flyer''|cat=AM}} and{{US-railway-routemap|Heartland Flyer|display=i|cat=AM}}
will both change the first line of the template to:
The optional named parameter |the=anything will omit the word “the” before the linked page. For example,
{{US-railway-routemap|the=x|Washington Union Station|cat=STN}}
will change the first line of the template to:
The optional named parameter |place= will change “a United States railway” to “a(n) alternate text railway”. For example,
{{US-railway-routemap|place=[[Atlanta]]}}
will change the first line of the template to:
and,
{{US-railway-routemap|Metra Electric District|place=Chicago|type=[[commuter line]]}}
will change the first line of the template to:
Categories
[edit]By default the template will be included in Category:Templates for railway lines of the United States. However, adding the optional named parameter |cat= provides a shortcut for other categories, and changes the default type description, as shown in this table:
Note that this parameter is not case sensitive: i.e. |cat=NO produces the same result as |cat=no.
The optional named parameter |name= or |catidx= will change the category sorting name for the page. The default is the page name, but since some route diagrams start with the system name, this is a simple way to change the sort key to the line or route name.
