Template:Rail color box is intended to be used within station and line infoboxes, diagrams, navboxes and tables to show a small color box and a link to the associated line or service name. Its use should be avoided within body text.

Usage

• {{Rail color box|system=|line=|inline=|type=|note=}}

Parameters

Template parameters

Parameter	Description
system or 1	An identifier to specify which system's color and line article name convention should be used. Either Module:Adjacent stations/system or Template:system color must exist, e.g. Template:RE-BB color or Module:Adjacent stations/Taipei Metro
line or 2	The line or service to be linked.
inline or 3	An optional parameter to create a color box and link suitable for use inline with other text: Value Description Example Example yes Inline color box with link      C Line      Green Line small Line strip with link   C Line   Green Line dot Small circle with link ● C Line ● Green Line square Small square with link ■ C Line ■ Green Line link Linked box           ldot Linked small circle ● ● lsquare Linked small square ■ ■ box Box with link omitted.           route Box with text C Green broute Bordered box with text C Green croute Box with text and border radius C Green xroute Transparent box with text and border radius C Green
type	This adds " – type" to the end, where type is the parameter value (which may be changed by a module subpage), and also passes the value to the data template or module. Typically a service or branch of the line.
note	An optional note with more information added at the end.

For systems where multiple colors are used to designate different lines, the appropriate color will be selected based on the combination of the system and line parameters. The same is done for systems where types or services have their own colors. Some options, such as setting the text color, border color, and the short name for the latter three, require the use of a module subpage. Each line can have its own values, as can each type. The table keys for line and type tables are the same: ["border color"], ["text color"] and ["short name"]. Note that the ["background color"] key is not used by this template.
