Ulaanbaatar Railbus

The Ulaanbaatar Railbus is a rail-based public transit system in the Mongolian capital of Ulaanbaatar. The city line opened on June 6, 2014, and the suburban line opened on October 20, 2014.

The railway serves the Ulaanbaatar Metropolitan Area, and was built on the existing ground-based railway infrastructure of the Trans-Mongolian Railway, which runs within the city in a latitudinal direction. The railway is a joint project of the Ulaanbaatar mayor's office and the Mongolian Ulaanbaatar Railways, a joint-stock company with equal shares of participants in the authorized capital from the governments of Russia (via Russian Railways) and Mongolia.
