The
Cikuray train was officially inaugurated on 25 March 2022, marking the return of regular passenger rail services to Garut after the Garut–Cibatu line had been inactive for almost four decades. The name
Cikuray is derived from
Mount Cikuray, a
stratovolcano located in
Garut Regency. The name reflects KAI's practice of using prominent geographical features for train branding and was proposed during preparations for the service launch by the local government of Garut. On 1 February 2025, the travel schedule and running time of the
Cikuray train were revised following the implementation of the 2025 train travel chart. Under this revision, the train continued to operate once daily in each direction, but with improved efficiency and a shorter journey time of around 5 hours 30 minutes. The revised schedule retained a morning departure from Garut and an evening departure from Pasar Senen. ==Stations==
