Viaurea a commuter rail network connecting Montecara with destinations in the Paretian constitutent kingdom of Luzela. It is owned and operated as a division of the jointly state-owned company Trenalia and receives additional subsidies from the governments of Montecara and Luzela.
Routes
The Viaurea network consists of five lines, all of which terminate at Montecara Pòrta Conìxia railway station. Lines A, B, C, and D travel through the Cross-Strait Tunnel; line E operates entirely within Montecara and connects the city center with the airport.
| Line | Terminals | km | Stations | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Montecara Pòrta Conìxia | Precea | 117 | 31 | |
| Santa Fátima | 126 | 33 | ||
| Gahã | 149 | 36 | ||
| Sirganha | 134 | 40 | ||
| Montecara–Enrico Dulio International Airport |

Fare structure
Seating is unreserved and single-class, and fares outside Montecara are fixed based on the distance traveled. Montecara itself is within the standard fare and ticketing zone shared with VM, the national public transit operator, which allows travelers to use Viaurea services if they have a valid ticket for the VM network. This service is particularly useful for travel between Montecara-Enrico Dulio International Airport and the city center, as line E is a direct service that makes only two station stops en route.
Rolling stock
All new rolling stock since 2003 has consisted of the Paretian-built Citat electric multiple unit. These trains can reach a maximum speed of 120 km/h and, depending on the specific model, have seating for up to 277 and a total capacity of up to 997. The older Serie 401 units are all due to be phased out by the end of 2025. Moving toward a single train type also significantly reduces maintenance costs and shortens time spent in the garage, as parts can be kept on hand and mechanics to not have to be trained across a wide variety of equipment.
