Riyadh is the main rail hub in central Saudi Arabia, where Saudi Arabia Railways services connect the capital with the Eastern Province and the northern interior. The city has one primary intercity passenger rail station, Riyadh railway station, used by SAR for long-distance services across two major corridors. Trains from Riyadh include SAR East Train services toward the Gulf coast and SAR North Train services through central and northern Saudi Arabia. Riyadh railway station handles intercity departures and arrivals rather than high-speed rail, with reserved seating used on long-distance services. There is no direct airport rail link from King Khalid International Airport to the intercity rail station. Rail routes from Riyadh run east toward Hofuf, Abqaiq, and Dammam, and north toward Qassim, Hail, Al Jouf, and Qurayyat. These services make Riyadh the main transfer point between the capital region, the Eastern Province, and northern Saudi Arabia. Book trains from and to Riyadh online at Rail Monsters.
