Middle Corridor Sees Daily Container Block Train Departing From China To Azerbaijan
(MENAFN- Trend News Agency)
BAKU, Azerbaijan, July 4. Starting in July, one
container block train is sent daily on a regular basis along the
Middle Corridor from China's Xi'an to Baku, Trend reports via the
Azerbaijan Railways (ADY).
The route takes circa twelve days, carrying primarily household
goods, cars, and spare parts.
The route from Xi'an goes through Kazakhstan and jumps over the
Caspian Sea before finally arriving in Baku.
The Middle Corridor has been up and running since 2014, but it
has really caught people's eye in the last two years thanks to some
new twists and turns in the geopolitical landscape.
In 2023, the Middle Corridor saw a whopping 86 percent growth as
about 2.7 million tons of cargo sailed through. Plans for 2024 aim
to go above and beyond 4.2 million tons.
