Commuter lines normally extend an average of 50 miles from
their downtown terminus.
Commuter train is a passenger train that is ridden mainly by
passengers who travel regularly from one place to another.

The trains are normally made up of a locomotive and a
number of passenger coaches.
The coaches are dimensionally similar to intercity coaches, but
typically have higher density seating as the average ride is
shorter.
Commuter rail, also called suburban rail.

Definitions and concepts
Am!n SePehrNia Commuter Rail System
Characteristics
Providing more seating and less standing space, for the longer
distances involved.
Having scheduled services.
Deliver services to lower-density suburban areas.
Having a lower frequency of service.
In ideal situation, trains run at high speed, theyre scheduled
and they have minimum stops.
4Am!n SePehrNia Commuter Rail System
The scheduled Trains
Commuter rail system has lower frequency in compare with
rapid railway.
Instead of fixed times it follows scheduled programs.
Moreover fewer stations have separated with longer distances.
At first commuter rail, serves the suburbs with lower density
and often shares its right with other rail transportation system.
5Am!n SePehrNia Commuter Rail System
In some cases services are only offered in rush hours.
In some cities, service is operated throughout the day and
evening and on weekends.
The distance range of commuter trains varies between 15
to 200 kilometers.

Differences between CR and other rail transport systems
Inter-city trains are more comfortable than commuter trains.
In inter-city train there are many spaces for passengers luggage.
As the most important thing in commuter train isthe number of
seats.
Generally commuter trains are optimized for maximum seats.
7Am!n SePehrNia Commuter Rail System
The rapid transport
Normally covers the urban areas with higher trains frequency.
Runs in domain between 12 to 20 km
Serves on a separate line and infrastructure.
Commuter rail usually uses of tracks, technology and standard
framework on the mainline of railroad network.

The routes have extended about 1800 miles with more than 1200
stations based on 60 lines.
All of these routes are owned to commuter trains system.
(without sharing with freight trains).
This system is completely profitable without any investment or
financing from government.
