- The Metrotrén (Spanish compound for metro, 'subway' + tren, 'train') was a Chilean commuter rail and regional rail service operated by the state-owned rail company EFE. The system started as a 134-kilometre line between Santiago and San Fernando, unifying between them the city of Rancagua and other 23 towns in the Metropolitan and O'Higgins regions. This line was first connected with the Santiago Metro at Alameda station, which gave the name to the service. In 2017, after 5 years of renovation, the service was split into two, a fully renovated, 20-kilometre commuter service between Santiago and Nos, a neighborhood in San Bernardo, in the south of the city, and an 82-kilometre regional rail between Santiago and Rancagua. This caused the suppression of all Metrotren services to San Fernando, a second connection with the Santiago Metro at Lo Valledor station, and the integration of the Santiago-Nos service to the Metropolitan Movility Network, introducing the railway services into the Santiago's integrated public transport fares. The integration was responsible for a heavy impulse in annual ridership, and a crescent demand from the public for more rail services. Since 2019, the government has announced the construction of two brand new commuter lines from Santiago, with services to Melipilla, in the south-west, and the recovery and restoration of the line to Batuco, in the north. Both of them will be partially integrated to the city's public transport fare. In 2021, EFE decided to eliminate the brand Metrotren, and establish the services as separate brands, still fully operated by the company. (en)
- Metrotren era la denominación utilizada por un servicio de tren suburbano chileno operado por Tren Central, filial de la Empresa de los Ferrocarriles del Estado (EFE). En un comienzo abarcaba una distancia de 134 km entre las ciudades de Santiago y San Fernando, uniendo 24 comunas situadas en las regiones Metropolitana y del Libertador General Bernardo O'Higgins. Sin embargo, en la actualidad el servicio de Metrotren fue dividido en dos, Metrotren Nos y Metrotren Rancagua, los cuales abarcan una distancia de 20 km entre Santiago y Nos y 82 km entre Santiago y Rancagua, respectivamente quedando suprimido el servicio hasta San Fernando. Desde su inauguración en 2017, el servicio a Nos pasa a estar integrado a la Red Metropolitana de Movilidad, con lo cual el valor del pasaje se cancela con la tarjeta bip!, permitiendo así una integración tarifaria con los buses y Metro de Santiago. El 24 de mayo de 2021 la denominación fue abandonada oficialmente en el marco del proceso de cambio de imagen corporativa de EFE, pasando sus 2 servicios a tener denominaciones genéricas: Tren Nos-Estación Central y Tren Rancagua-Estación Central.
