Doesn’t the Caracas metro consist of a bunch of bicycles tethered together?

Metro de Medellin doesn’t play around. They teach metro etiquette in primary school. No feet on seats, respect the train, etc.

In the case of Chile, EFE is the Spanish acronym for [“Empresa de Ferrocarriles del Estado”](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empresa_de_los_Ferrocarriles_del_Estado) (State Railway Company). It’s a state-owned company in charge of most of the country’s rail passenger services, except for the Santiago Metro, which is managed by a separate company (Metro S.A ).
Currently the official name of the [Valparaíso Metro](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valpara%C3%ADso_Metro) is “Tren Limache – Puerto”(Limache – Puerto Train), literally the train between Limache and Puerto stations (super creative lol), but practically nobody calls it that, almost everybody calls it Metro Valparaíso or MERVAL, Spanish acronym for “**Me**tro **R**egional de **Val**paraíso”(Valparaíso Regional Metro), its official name prior to 2005, when it was managed by a separate company (Metro Regional de Valparaíso S.A).
Technically it’s not a metro in the traditional sense, it’s more like a commuter rail system, but in 2005 it was modernized and a section of 5 km between Chorrillos and Miramar stations was buried underground and its name was officially changed to “Metro Valparaíso”, because for most people underground train = metro/subway.
