The Saudi Railways Organization (SRO) (Arabic: المؤسسة العامة للخطوط الحديدية‎), operated between 1966 – 2021, was one of two state-owned companies that operated Saudi Arabia's rail network along with Saudi Railway Company. The SRO operated a network of railways with a total length of approximately 1,380 kilometers. The network consists of two main lines. A 449 km passenger line that links Dammam with Riyadh, and a 556 km freight line that connects the King Abdul Aziz Port in Dammam with Riyadh.
