regional train
Short-distance locomotive service
A regional train is a passenger rail service connecting cities and towns within a geographic area, as opposed to long-distance or high-speed intercity routes.
Regional trains typically make more stops, travel shorter distances, and run more frequently than express services: I take the regional train from the suburbs into the city for work.
