Etihad Rail is one component of the Gulf Railway that will connect: Oman, UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. So far it is the only part that is completed. Each country is responsible for its length of the railroad. The Arabian Gulf region is the least populated part of Saudi Arabia and therefore the Saudi length of the track is a low priority for the Saudi government and work is scheduled to start in 2026.
All lines are currently in service except the purple and yellow lines which are under construction. The UAE portion of the Gulf Railway begun freight service and will begin passenger service between Abu Dhabi and Dubai later this year.
The orange line is a dedicated High Speed Rail with a service speed of 300 km/h (190 mph). The remaining line are shared with freight and have a service speed of 200 km/h (120 mph).
