The route between Mersin and Adana is served by the regional train services, primarily the Gölbaşı and Azrail trains. The Gölbaşı train is a popular choice for travelers, reaching speeds of up to 120 km/h (75 mph) and completing the journey in approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes. This train typically offers standard class seating, providing a straightforward travel experience.
The Azrail train, on the other hand, tends to travel at similar speeds, completing the route in just over 1 hour and 15 minutes, depending on the schedule. This service is known for its punctuality and has a slightly more modern interior compared to the Gölbaşı.
Both trains make a few stops in between, allowing passengers to relax and enjoy the scenic view of the Turkish countryside during the short journey. While not classified as high-speed trains, both services effectively connect the two cities, making them suitable for daily commuters and travelers.
