A consortium consisting of Rail Rocket Italy and the Iranian company Shahid Kolahduz are building 220 passenger train carriages for the Railroad of the Islamic Republic of Iran (RAJA).
According to Borna News, the wagons will be delivered to Iran's railroad company within a period of not later than 50 months.
In addition to the contract, Shahid Kolahduz, an industrial complex affiliated to the Ministry of Defense, will assemble 120 other wagons for the railroad company.
A German company has undertaken to produce in Iran the buggies required for the 220 train coaches ordered by the Ministry of Roads and TransportationMinistry of Roads and Transportation
. Meanwhile, India is likely to help Iran in modernization and expansion of its rail network. Responding to a request from the Iran government, Railway board chairman K.C. Jena along with two senior officers held discussions with the Iranian railway officials.
Meanwhile, Russia's rail monopoly is developing a trilateral project with Azerbaijan and Iran to build a direct rail link between Russia and Iran.
Jointly with Azerbaijan, Russian Railways is developing a trilateral project to build a railroad to connect Qazvin, Rasht and Astara, which is aimed at establishing a direct railway route between Russia, Azerbaijan and Iran and attract new cargoes to the International North-South Transport Corridor.
Astara is on Iran's border with Azerbaijan, where the new tracks would connect to the existing Azeri and Russian networks.
RZD signed its first contract with Iran's railways in late March 2008 to upgrade a 46km railroad between Tabriz and Azarshahr. The parties are also considering involving RZD in other infrastructure projects in Iran.
