Common questions about Trains in Romania

What Trains routes are there in Romania?

We sell 2304 Trains routes in Romania, serving 55 places, run by 4 operators. Every one of those routes has an operator that actually serves it, so the count is the network we can sell rather than every pair of places on a map.

How much do Trains tickets in Romania cost?

The cheapest Trains fare in Romania is €11.88 for one passenger, across the 2,304 routes we sell there. The median route runs 198 km in a straight line, which is the distance that fare should be read against before comparing it to anywhere else.

Can I travel out of Romania by Trains?

112 of the Trains routes we sell touching Romania cross a border and 2192 stay inside it, reaching 1 other countries including Austria. Cross border routes are usually the ones where the fare and the journey time differ most between operators.

Which operators run Trains services in Romania?

4 operators run Trains services on routes we sell in Romania: cfr, CFR Călători, Regio Călători, Transferoviar Călători. Each is a real carrier from the published operator catalogue, and each has its own fares and conditions. The operator table on this page compares them on speed, flexibility and what is on board.

What is the longest Trains route in Romania?

The longest Trains route we sell touching Romania runs from Sector 2 to Vienna, 857 km in a straight line. The median route in the country is 198 km, so this one is a considerable outlier and the fares on it behave differently from the rest.

Where these numbers come from

Schedules, seat counts and fares are generated by our own model until the supplier contracts are signed. Places, coordinates, operators, which operator serves which pair, and every distance are real. We would rather say that on every page than let a modelled number pass for a filed one.
