the way I read it... Transperth is Transperth, NMR is the name of the project that covers all the recent works - new railcars, railway line to mandurah, extension to clarkson, greenwood station etc

Transperth is all of the public transport services (bus, ferry, train). New MetroRail is the name of the metro rail service only. Got changed from Transperth Trains I believe.
