The latest timetable, effective 1 April 2015.

Local trains cannot be booked in advance like long-distance trains and it can be difficult to find the schedule online anywhere, let alone in English.

One of the more useful routes is between Yogyakarta and Solo.

They depart frequently and are faster than buses because the stations (unlike bus terminals) are in the centre of town.

In addition, this route doubles as an airport train because Maguwo station is next to Yogyakarta Airport.

Route	Train Name	Train Times	Ticket Prices
Yogyakarta to Solo	Sriwedari Prameks	05:30, 09:10, 12:15, 18:00 07:35, 09:57, 11:05, 13:50, 14:45, 20:15	Rp13 000 Rp8000
Solo to Yogyakarta	Sriwedari Prameks	07:15, 10:40, 14:00, 19:40 05:15, 09:25, 12:10, 13:00, 16:10, 17:00	Rp13 000 Rp8000

And when tickets cost a maximum of $US1 each, passengers can’t complain about the price.

The 75km trip takes a bit over one hour.
