   Hi, Denis!  Recently you wrote in a message to Ardith Hinton:   
      
    DM>  What is "t7"?   
      
    AH>  I've never been to Moscow... but this sounds to me like   
    AH>  the name of a bus, commuter train, or subway route.  I   
    AH>  guess the name hasn't changed although the itinerary has   
    AH>  been modified somewhat.  :-)   
      
    DM>  Ardith, YES. It is elecrobus.   
      
      
               A bus which runs on electricity?  In Vancouver, a lot of the buses   
   have poles on the roof which receive electrical power from overhead wires.  We   
   call these trolley buses, but streetcars & some trains work the same way.  :-)   
      
      
      
    AH>  What is communter train?   
      
      
               A commuter is a person who lives a considerable distance away from   
   where they work and uses a car &/or public transit (such as a bus or train) to   
   travel between a suburb or small community & the city on a regular basis.   
      
               English being the way it is, "commuter" began life as a noun which   
   nowadays may also be used... without inflection... as an adjective.  :-)
