{{Infobox public transit | name = Sochi Light Metro | image = Coat_of_Arms_of_Sochi_(Krasnodar_krai).png | imagesize = 150 px | caption = Bombardier Spacium train mockup | owner = City of Sochi | locale = [[Sochi]], [[Russia]] | transit_type = [[Medium capacity system|Light Metro]] | lines =3| stations =24| operation_will_start = 2013 | system_length = {{convert|86.4|km|mi|abbr=on}} | track_gauge = {{Track gauge|1520mm|allk=on}} | map = {{Sochi Light Metro route diagram}} | map_state = collapsed }}

If some of the row of route map made with WP:ROUTE set (not entirely) breaks apart, possibly the infobox width is too short and forcing some of the text description within the route diagram template to return. Increase the box_width parameter, or putting auto will solve this problem.
