Kereta Commuter Indonesia, commonly known as Commuterline or KRL (Kereta Rel Listrik, Electric Multiple Unit) is a commuter rail system in the Jakarta metropolitan area, Indonesia. Kereta Commuter Indonesia is operated by PT Kereta Commuter Indonesia (KCI), a subsidiary of PT Kereta Api Indonesia, Indonesian national railway company. The infrastructure are owned by Kereta Api Indonesia, hence some of the stations and lines are shared with intercity trains.
It was known as KRL Jabodetabek. Jabodetabek refers to Jakarta metropolitan area, which is formed by combining the first syllables of Jakarta, Bogor, Depok, (Greater) Tangerang and Bekasi, which also represent KA Commuter's operational area. At present the service extended beyond Jabodetabek to Rangkasbitung in Banten and Cikarang in Bekasi Regency. The name of the operator has also changed to PT Kereta Commuter Indonesia (KCI) from previous PT KAI Commuter Jabodetabek (KCJ). The current rolling stock are composed by used Japanese trains from Tokyo Metro, Toyo Rapid, Japan Railways and Tokyu, with local-produced trains from Industri Kereta Api (INKA).
