No cargo train from China after railroad inauguration

· 2 min read · 306 views

MAZAR-I-SHARIF (Pajhwok): Not a single cargo train has arrived from China at the Hairatan dry port in northern Afghanistan since September when the railroad was inaugurated.

The railway line between Afghanistan and China was inaugurated on September 7, 2016. The same day, the first-ever cargo train from China, after some two weeks of journey, arrived at Hairatan port of northern Balkh province.

Traders in Balkh say they need an active export and import process on the railway track for being cost-effective.
