Usage notes

• 列車／列车 is sometimes used instead of 火車／火车 (huǒchē) to follow technology development as trains are not steam powered anymore. But the term only refers to the train itself and not the mode of transportation. It cannot replace 火車／火车 (huǒchē) in the following terms:
  • 火車票／火车票  ―  huǒchē piào  ―  train ticket
  • 火車站／火车站  ―  huǒchē zhàn  ―  train station
  • 坐火車／坐火车  ―  zuò huǒchē  ―  to travel by train

Derived terms

• 列車長／列车长
• 子彈列車／子弹列车 (zǐdàn lièchē)
• 貨物列車／货物列车 (huòwù lièchē)
