Railways Stations in Bucharest

Bucharest is served by a commuter railway network operated by CFR, the Romanian national railways. Although commuter trains no longer serve national routes, commuter train services are bad to say the least. "Personal" commuter trains are extremely slow (a 60 km route is completed in 2 hours), uncomfortable, sometimes filthy, and hard to come by even for a local, as they operate either from the main station, Gara de Nord or from 6 other stations, some of which small and obscure (Gara Basarab, Gara Obor, Gara Chitila, Gara Progresu, Gara Titan and Gara Pantelimon). They are meant to service major factories and industrial platforms with workers, and generally run early in the morning and in the afternoon. Commuter trains currently run to Oltenita, Giurgiu, Urziceni, Lehliu Gara and Titu. These are not meant to be used for travelling for the whole route, but only from a close-by village to the city. There are also weekend tourist trains from Bucharest to Snagov, starting either at Gara de Nord or Gara Baneasa.

There are no urban trains (similar to RER lines in Paris) in Bucharest, even though a commuter ring railway in currently in construction around Bucharest, to supplement the Bucharest Metro.
