Trenalia is the jointly state-owned mainline railway company serving Desena and Montecara. It operates inter-city rail across southeastern Conitia. The hubs for Trenalia services are Desena Central railway station and Montecara Central railway station.

Routes and lines

Trenalia route map

Trenalia services include high-speed rail between Montecara and Desena, conventional-speed rail that serves large cities as well as small towns, and rack railway that serves mountainous areas. Night trains (except for high-speed services) often operate with attached sleeping cars which are detached when they reach their intended destination in the morning.

Trenalia organizes its services into the following lines:

Line Type Destinations
Domini Inter-city rail Amarești/Alunișu — Desena — Santupul/Lupac
Iridia High-speed rail Montecara — Desena
Transconitia Inter-city rail Silinda — Desena — Milovan/Sabas/Ciudad República
Terrafirma Inter-city rail Veseud/Presaca — Desena — Videni/Milovan
Suran Inter-city rail Desena — Brelu/Linești/Timeșesti

Marina Inter-city rail Montecara — Bacova
Serenissima Higher-speed rail Montecara — Valisoara
Saciuva Inter-city rail Montecara — Ivaniu/Carea
Covaș Rack railway Livezi — Covaș

Most of these lines are the remnants of independent railways that gradually went bankrupt and were nationalized from approximately the 1930s to the 1980s.
