How to Use Metro
To use the Metro symbol (🚇) in HTML, insert the
entity 🚇 directly into your markup. The decimal entity 🚇 works in any HTML-serialised document.
In CSS pseudo-elements use content: '\1F687';.
In JavaScript and TypeScript the escape '\u{1F687}' evaluates to 🚇. In Python source, write '\U0001F687'.
The character encodes to F0 9F 9A 87 as UTF-8 bytes and D83D DE87 as UTF-16 code units. Its decimal codepoint is 128647.
This is a fully-qualified emoji and should render with colour on iOS, Android, Windows and macOS. Appearance may vary between platforms, but the underlying codepoint is identical everywhere.
