Israel’s Railways Set One Day Record of Travelers at 361,255
Israel Railways sets new daily record with 361,255 passengers on Thursday, surpassing previous 2025 records amid increased capacity and demand.
Jerusalem, 21 December, 2025 (TPS-IL) — Israel hit an all-time travel record with 361,255 passengers on 675 passenger trains that were operated on its railways last Thursday.
The previous record was also recorded in 2025 with 357,773 passengers on March 16, 2025.
“This figure continues the upward trend in passenger numbers recorded in the past year, and is the result of the introduction of new cars into operation, additional trains, and the operation of modern, high-capacity electric trains that carry up to 2,000 passengers,” said the Ministry of Transportation. “These, along with other projects to expand the track infrastructure and lengthen trains, are significantly and continuously improving the supply of seating.”
Israel Railways notes that demand in 2025 was the highest ever and that the five operating days with the highest passenger numbers were all recorded in 2025, with three of the five recorded during the current Hanukkah holiday.
In October 2025, an all-time record was recorded in the average daily travel with 298 thousand passengers, the highest daily travel figure recorded during this period.
