रोमानिया's rail नेटवर्क is operated by CFR Calatori (state यात्री रेलवे) on an extensive 10,600 km नेटवर्क inherited from the communist era. सेवाs range from InterCity (IC) ट्रेनs on main मार्गs to Accelerat and Personal (slow stopping) ट्रेनs on branch lines. Bucharest to Cluj-Napoca takes around 7-9 घंटाs by current सेवाs, reflecting slow average speeds due to aging infrastructure. However, major upgrades are ongoing: the Bucharest-Brasov corridor is being upgraded to 200 km/h and a new high-speed line is planned to reduce यात्रा times significantly. रोमानिया received substantial EU funding for रेलवे modernization, and the pace of improvement has accelerated since 2020. New Siemens Desiro and Alstom Coradia regional ट्रेनsets have replaced some older rolling stock. The Bucharest Metro (Metrorex) operates 4 lines in the capital. Gara de Nord in Bucharest is the primary intercity hub, connecting to all major रोमानियाn cities and international सेवाs to Budapest, वियना, and Belgrade. रोमानिया is included in the Eurail/Interrail Global Pass. Tickets are sold at cfrcalatori.ro, स्टेशन counters, and the CFR app. Fares are very affordable by EU standards. The Transylvania landscape served by ट्रेनs between Brasov, Sinaia, and Predeal is particularly scenic, as is the Danube Delta narrowband रेलवे near Tulcea.
