Line 51 (Amsterdam Metro)
- ... that Line 51 of the Amsterdam Metro was called an express tram because the term "metro" was too controversial in the city? Source: "De slag om de Nieuwmarktbuurt", Municipality of Amsterdam; "Het woord 'metro' is een tijd lang zo besmet dat de metro naar Amstelveen 'sneltram' wordt genoemd."
