The first freight train set off from Vologda to Iran via the International North-South Transport Corridor (INSTC). The train has 10 wagons.
The International North-South Transport Corridor is a significant transport initiative spanning more than 7,200 kilometers. The corridor offers an attractive alternative to the traditional Suez Canal route. The North-South Corridor is a combined rail-sea-road transit route that reaches Europe by passing through India, Iran, Azerbaijan, Russia, and Central Asia.
The Northern Railway plans to carry out such shipments on a regular basis, using the Trans-Caspian and Western routes.
