The train services from Riyadh to Jauf are operated by the Saudi Railways Organization, featuring the modern Al-Mu'allim train. This service covers the approximately 1,200 kilometers (746 miles) route and offers both Economy and Business class seating options. The Al-Mu'allim train maintains speeds of up to 200 km/h (124 mph), allowing for a journey duration of around 12 hours to reach Jauf from Riyadh.
While passengers can enjoy comfortable seating and basic onboard services, this route primarily benefits from the reliability of the Al-Mu'allim service. The train makes several key stops along the way, providing access to smaller cities, but does not operate on a high-speed track like those found in other countries. The scenery along the route includes a mix of urban and desert landscapes, showcasing Saudi Arabia's unique geography.
