Train categories

Long-distance trains

High Speed

A Class 500 high speed train in Cizekporok.

High Speed are long-distance fast train services between major cities and regions. One route crosses the border into Movargovina. High Speed services began on the Cizekporok to Slatnik in 1987. A second line to Jalovec opened in 1994. Services were speed limited in 1996, owing to reduced budgets for track maintenance. A third high speed line under construction, between Uhrov and Zalubie, was opened in 2006. In 2012, the South Coast High Speed railway opened between Komarov and Valaskov, via Slatnik. The dedicated equipment for high speed services are the KHŽ Class 437, KHŽ Class 500 and KHŽ Class 520 trains. KHŽ Class 435s originally operated high speed services until 1990, when they were replaced by 437s.

SperoRail

SperoRail are intercity trains that cross Spero borders, and connect Holynia with other countries. These services are promoted by KHZ and the Spero Community. Are frequently operated by foreign state railways. All are locomotive hauled using conventional equipment. Frequently reach up to 180 km/h.

Holyn Sleeper

Holyn Sleeper are night services between major cities and regions in Holynia, and services to international countries operated by KHZ. Several domestic trains are named. Some services only operate seasonally.

InterCity Express

InterCity Express are semi high-speed long-distance train services between major cities and regions. Typically operate at 200 km/h to 220 km/h. The KHŽ Class 435 is the most common equipment on these services, however, newer multiple units like the KHŽ Class 532, are frequently operating InterCity Express services.

InterCity

InterCity are long-distance train services between major cities and regions. Much more frequent than InterCity Express services but make more stops. Typically locomotive hauled, however, bi-level multiple units, the KHŽ Class 529, are operating some services.

Regional trains

• InterRegio for long-distance train services between regions and centers in Holynia. Lower in class than InterCity but more frequent. Makes more stops than InterCity.
• Regional Express for semi-fast regional service making stops within regions in Holynia.
• Regional for regional services making stops within regions in Holynia. Often most basic train available operated by KHZ.
• Suburban for suburban commuter rail services in major cities. KHZ passed these services over to the respective regional transport entity, however, most operate on KHZ trackage.
