Virginia Railway Express (VRE) is Virginia’s only commuter rail system serving the Northern Virginia and Washington, D.C. area since 1992. Our service reaches as far west as Manassas and as far south as Spotsylvania County running parallel to the I-95/395 and I-66 Corridors of Statewide Significance (CoSS).
VRE’s two lines—the 60-mile Fredericksburg Line and the 35-mile Manassas Line—provide direct access to jobs in Alexandria, Arlington, and Washington, DC. VRE provides safe, cost-effective, accessible, reliable, convenient, and customer responsive services to its riders. VRE is jointly operated by the Northern Virginia Transportation Commission (NVTC) and the Potomac and Rappahannock Transportation Commission (PRTC).
