The Tren Suburbano (lit. transl. Suburban Train)[a] is an electric suburban rail system in Mexico City. It is operated by Ferrocarriles Suburbanos with concessioned trains from Construcciones y Auxiliar de Ferrocarriles (CAF). It was designed to complement the extensive Mexico City metro system, Latin America's largest and busiest urban rail network.

The railway has one operative line with a length of 27 km (17 mi) with seven stations, located in Cuauhtémoc and Azcapotzalco in Mexico City, and Tlalnepantla, Tultitlán and Cuautitlán, in the State of Mexico. A second line is under construction to connect with the Felipe Ángeles International Airport (AIFA) in Zumpango. Additional expansions were proposed in the 2000s with a total length of 242 kilometres (150 mi) of rail system.[5]
