Why isn't a subway train that is moving above ground call a aboveway train?

---

Answers:    it isn't called an aboveway train as it still runs on its underground tracks. A apt example of this is the London Underground, which has masses miles above ground, but not whole lines. The lone reason the tracks come above ground is to set free money or lack of suitable boring stuff underground.
