For my city it shows 2 characters there, e.g. M4 for Metro 4, so it can display more than one letter. Maybe if there is a
short_namedefined in osm it uses that, but if it's not available it falls back to the first character?The public transport routing is very limited in comaps though, as only routes through underground lines, no buses or other means of transportation supported.
