Turkish Republic Railways

Turkish Republic Railways (TCDD, Türkiye Cumhuriyeti Devlet Demiryolları) is the state corporation that operates the public railway system in Turkey. The organization was founded in 1927 to take over the operation of railways in Anatolia, which up until then had been run and financed by private corporations.

Today the TCDD operates over 8500 kilometres of railway lines.
