Iran, Azeri exclave resume railway service
The railway between Jolfa [Iran] and Naxcivan [Autonomous Republic of
Azerbaijan] has become operational again. A consignment of cement was
sent from Jolfa to Naxcivan.
The railway between Jolfa and Naxcivan is 40 km long. The railway
service was suspended 19 years ago following a war between Azerbaijan
and Armenia over Nagornyy Karabakh.
The railway has become operational again by sending a ten-wagon train
carrying the first export consignment of cement to the Naxcivan
Autonomous Republic.
The ten-wagon train will also carry export goods every day.
