Another Turkish export freight train headed to China. The train consists of forty-one 40-foot containers, equipped with electrical equipment manufactured in Turkey.
Moving on the Baku-Tbilisi-Kars railway route, the train arrives in Baku and is later delivered by a feeder vessel to Aktau, Kazakhstan. Then the cargo will continue the journey by rail.
From Turkey's Köseköy railway station, the final destination of the freight is Xi'an, China.
BTK is considered to be a fast and safe international corridor. Turkish-Russian cargo will be relocated to the Baku-Tbilisi-Kars railway line. Sending the first container train from Turkey to Russia on the Baku-Tbilisi-Kars (BTK) railway, which completed the route on February 9, was considered an important step in expanding railway trade.
