Ankara Demirspor is one of the 38 Demirspor clubs in Turkey that are founded by the employees of the Turkish Railways (TCDD), similar to the Lokomotiv sports clubs of Eastern Europe.

Ankara Demirspor and Adana Demirspor are the only Demirspor clubs that compete in the Turkish Professional Football League System, and Ankara Demirspor is the only one that is still affiliated with TCDD.
