The Kyiv City Express (Ukrainian: Київська міська електричка, romanized: Kyivska miska elektrychka) is an urban rail transit passenger service in Kyiv, Ukraine. Since 2022, the service is operated by Ukrainian Railways.^[2] The project uses a long-existing railroad ring in the city for peak hour circulation of electric multiple unit trains.

Working 2 since September 2009^[3] Kyiv Urban Electric Train is the first instance of a combined municipal railway service and an intracity passenger rail route in Ukraine, and arguably in the former Soviet Union as a whole.

The ring was fully completed on 4 October 2011, the full length of lines is 50.8 km with 15 stations.^[3] Opening hours are from 5:48 until 21:37 with a time between trains of between 10 and 30 minutes.^[3] 12 trains operate on the line; the fastest time to complete a loop is 1 hour and 25 minutes.^[3] A train ticket costs ₴15.^[4]

With the beginning of the Russian invasion on February 24, 2022, the operation of the city electric train was suspended, later resumed on March 21, 2022 on the route from Darnytsia to Svyatoshyn, and from March 27 on the whole loop, including new stations: Mykilska Slobidka, Kyiv-Demiivskyi, Protasiv Yar and Rusanivka.^[2][5]
