{{High-use}}
The '''{{tlx|rail-interchange|…}}''' template is an abstraction layer to cope with rebranding and renaming of transport systems. The template maps {{math|''f'' (where, how) → to brand, link, icon(s)}} allowing the whole of Wikipedia to be easily updated when a transport network switches operator, changes name or updates their logo.

'''Avoid brandname, operator or sponsor names''' when choosing the location/link pair.

== Usage ==

The optional named parameter {{para|size}} will override the default height of the icon (between 10 and 20 pixels):
{|
|-
| {{rail-interchange|buenosaires|A|size=10}}
| <code><nowiki>{{rail-interchange|buenosaires|A|size=10}}</nowiki></code>
|-
| {{rail-interchange|buenosaires|A}}
| <code><nowiki>{{rail-interchange|buenosaires|A}}</nowiki></code>
|-
| {{rail-interchange|buenosaires|A|size=20}}
| <code><nowiki>{{rail-interchange|buenosaires|A|size=20}}</nowiki></code>
|}
The value for {{para|size}} must be an [[integer]] and should not be any larger than the display height of the diagram icons themselves (20 pixels in most diagrams).

The icons' wikilink and alternate text can be overridden by adding the optional parameters {{para|link|''newlink''}} and {{para|alt|''othertext''}}. Note that if ''only'' the {{para|link}} parameter is changed then the {{para|alt}} parameter will change from the default to the new link text. (However, the {{para|alt}} parameter can be changed without affecting the link target.)

==Specific by country==
{{right|{{nowrap|1=<small>This list:</small> {{view||edit|template=Rail-interchange/doc/countries}}}}}}{{clear}}
Variants exist for a number of different places around the world to display symbols which are specific to a country or city - for example, the London Underground logo on London specific articles. Note that these are the ''names'' of the main location involved, and not the ''brand'' used by the current franchise operator (which can change frequently). If the ''logo'' should change, it can be easily updated within this template.

Please only use [[free content]] images. In most cases, using non-free logos in this manner will not comply with [[Wikipedia:Non-free content|Wikipedia's non-free content policy]].
