Varies from country to country. China doesn't have regional rail like this they're slooowly introducing it in Beijing iirc)...

...but something like the S-Bahn in Germany falls into the same category (and is functionally indistinct from the U-Bahn)

That is, if you count Berlin's "subway ridership" as just it's U-Bahn, you're missing half the picture

I dunno much about it, but I took trains between Chinese cities when I was there. Very convenient for me at least.

No I'm not saying they don't exist at all, but that they are not designed to the same standards as their subways

In Tokyo there's no way to tell at a glance if you're looking at a subway or a "commuter rail" train; they also run onto each other's tracks

that is, a subway train reaching the end of its line will continue right past the end of the line on a suburban railroad and vice versa
