The Saudi Arabia Rolling stock Market may undergo a gradual slowdown in growth rates between 2025 and 2029. Beginning strongly at 13.62% in 2025, growth softens to 1.22% in 2029.

The rolling stock market in Saudi Arabia is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 4.27% during the forecast period (2025-2031). The country has a well-developed rail infrastructure and is investing heavily in improving its public transport system, which is driving the growth of the rolling stock market. Saudi Railways Organization (SRO) is responsible for managing and operating all railway networks in the country. It also plans to purchase new locomotives as part of its Railway Development Plan 2040, which will further boost the demand for rolling stocks in Saudi Arabia. In addition, increasing government initiatives such as Vision 2031 are creating enormous opportunities for private sector investment into transportation projects throughout the country that will drive demand for rolling stocks over time.
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia boasts one of the best railway infrastructures globally with an extensive network covering 6200 km across various regions including Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam etc., making it easier to transport commodities from one place to another swiftly and efficiently thus propelling growth for this industry segment over time. The government has been taking steps towards encouraging more investments into transportation projects by introducing initiatives such as Vision 2031 that aim at modernizing existing networks and building new ones through PPPs while providing incentives like tax exemptions or reduced duties on imported equipment used in transport systems thereby boosting their revenue potential over long term horizon along with development of efficient communication systems linking different parts within them eventually aiding further progress within this space over coming years ahead.
