This page lists 10 train services operating across the Sri Lanka national rail network, with each service shown by name, train number, classification, running days, and scheduled first and last stop times. The data is sourced directly from official Sri Lanka timetable feeds and is updated daily by the TrainsTracking data pipeline. Each train name links to a dedicated page showing the full stop-by-stop schedule, available travel classes, sample fares, and booking information.
The schedule covers long-distance express, mail, intercity, and where applicable regional and high-speed services. Times shown are the scheduled departure or arrival times from the official timetable in the train's operating timezone. For real-time positions and delay information on routes where the operator publishes live data, use the live tracking page for Sri Lanka.
To find a specific service, use the search and filter controls in the schedule table above — you can filter by train type, search by train name or number, or sort by departure time. Tickets for any listed train are sold through the official Sri Lanka operator booking platform — links to the operator are shown on each individual train detail page.
Each row in the schedule represents one named train service. The first and last stop times shown indicate when the service starts at its originating station and arrives at its terminating station. Many trains operate in both directions on the same corridor with different train numbers — for example, an "Up" service running one direction and a "Down" service running the reverse — so check the train name and number carefully against the official timetable.
Train type badges indicate the service classification: Express services are faster with fewer stops, Mail trains carry passengers and parcels on long-distance corridors, Passenger services stop at most intermediate stations, Intercity connects major cities at moderate speed, and High-Speed services run on dedicated upgraded track. Sleeper services include berth accommodation for overnight travel.
Running days are shown as colour-coded badges — green indicates the train runs on that day of the week. A train running every day will have all seven badges in green; a weekday-only service will have only Monday to Friday highlighted. Always cross-check running days with the operator on the day of travel as schedule changes can occur with the annual timetable revision or due to engineering works.
