List of suburban and commuter rail systems

This is an alphabetical listing of cities and countries that have commuter or suburban railways that are currently operational and in service. Commuter and suburban rail systems are train services that connect city centres with outer suburbs or nearby cities, with most passengers traveling for work or school. Unlike metros or light rail these systems usually operate on main line tracks unsegregated from other rail traffic. They differ from regional rail in that they usually have a hub-and-spoke paradigm and are focused on moving large number of passengers to a central business district.

^1 Sydney, Melbourne, Berlin, Copenhagen, Hamburg, London, Paris (RER) and São Paulo (CPTM) have hybrid systems, with trains running as metro-like services (on segregated track—usually in tunnel—and with high frequency) in their inner cities, but as main-line commuter services in the suburbs. Nonetheless, the International Association of Public Transport (French: L’Union internationale des transports publics (UITP)) does not consider these systems to be "metro" systems.^[86]

Defined here as the SUGOCA coverage area (as of 2012.04.01), together with the Gotōji Line and the Jōno ‒ Tagawa-Gotōji section of the Hita-Hikosan Line. In comparison to the tabulation here, JR Kyūshū's Fukuoka Suburban Area (福岡近郊区間) as defined for fare-calculation purposes includes the Haruda ‒ Keisen section of the Chikuhō Main Line and the Tagawa-Gotōji ‒ Imayama section of the Hita-Hikosan Line, but excludes the Kagoshima Main Line south of Tosu; the Nagasaki Main Line; the Chikuhi Line / Karatsu Line; the Nippō Main Line south of Yukuhashi; and the Moji ‒ Shimonoseki section of the San'yō Main Line.

[52] [43]
The Takahama Line and the Yokogawara Line now operate as a single line, which means that a train goes directly from Takahama Station to Yokogawara Station via Matsuyama City Station, yet they're still counted as two separate lines.

Unlike Greater Tokyo and Osaka‒Kobe‒Kyoto, JR Central has no suburban area (近郊区間) defined for the Greater Nagoya area for fare calculation purposes, and the TOICA coverage area is limited, with some trains continuing beyond the boundaries of the current coverage area.

Defined here as the union of JR West’s Urban Network (アーバンネットワーク) (as of 2012.03.17) and the Osaka Suburban Area (大阪近郊区間) for fare calculation purposes, omitting Shinkansen sections. The Urban Network is mostly identical to the Osaka Suburban Area, but omits the Kakogawa Line; the Sasayamaguchi – Tanikawa section of the Fukuchiyama Line; the Maibara – Shin-Ōsaka section of the Tōkaidō Shinkansen; and the Nishi-Akashi – Aioi section of the Sanyō Shinkansen.
