High-speed services

The fastest trains on the network, running on dedicated or upgraded track with premium seating and the tightest schedules.

Corridor & intercity services

Frequent shorter-distance services connecting city pairs, typically the practical alternative to a regional flight.

Regional services

State-supported corridors linking secondary cities into the wider network.

Long-distance services

Multi-day routes with sleeping cars and dining service — the trains people ride for the journey as much as the destination.

Overnight services

Depart in the evening, arrive in the morning — a roomette replaces a hotel night as well as the journey.

Scenic routes

Services routed for the view, through mountain, canyon and coastal country you cannot see any other way.
