ISLAMABAD:
A transnational cargo train that left Turkey’s historic Istanbul city on March 4 will reach a dry port in Islamabad on March 16 after traveling 6,500km and will be received at the end of its 12-day journey by Federal Minister for Railways Azam Khan Swati.
The service of the cargo train that runs between three Muslim countries – Turkey, Iran and Pakistan – has been resumed after a suspension of ten years.
Sources in the Pakistan Railways said the country’s official rail service has completed its preparations to welcome this train, which has the capacity to transport 750 metric tons of cargo. They said the train will enter Pakistan from Iran’s Zahedan border and will reach Islamabad via Quetta-Sukkur route.
