The United Arab Emirates has a very limited rail network, and has developed or is developing the following railways:
Urban
Under Construction
- Abu Dhabi Metro
Freight and Intercity
- Etihad Rail network : A new railroad system in the UAE. 264-km track is already complete and freight service has started. Passenger traffic will start soon. Other lines are still under construction (see next point)
- 1200 km of new freight and passenger lines will link the UAE, from the Saudi border on the west, to the Oman border on the east, hopefully by 2018[1]
