Stopping of Afghanistan’s first rail cargo in Iran

After the stoppage of Afghanistan’s first transit train in Iran, which is supposed to reach Turkey, the officials of the country’s railway administration in Herat said that the reason for this stoppage is related to the consortium and Iran, and they should solve their internal problem.

The media reported that this train, which carries 1,100 tons of talc, entered Iran’s Roznak railway station; But it was not allowed to pass.

On the other hand, a source in Iran told Ilna news agency that the issue is under investigation, but the reason for not allowing this train to pass is probably financial issues.

This is a matter for the contractor to form a consortium It turns out that this consortium performs the handling measures and this consortium had to pay a fee to Iran for the passage of the train, and it seems that this agreement has not been reached and probably because of this, Iran has not given the locomotive to this train.

At the same time, Tasnim news agency reported that no commercial transit train from Afghanistan has entered Iran’s railway territory so far.
