Very trivial but kind of rail related in a way.
Why does Tyneside have a light rail system called the Metro, a shopping centre called the MetroCentre and a local radio station called Metro FM?
The answer could well be that it's complete coincidence, Metro isn't that unusual a word. But it didn't half confuse me when I lived there and found the Metro didn't go to the MetroCentre.
