The first freight train to make its way from China to Europe makes a stop at Turkish capital, Ankara, opening a route that cuts transport time and promises to boost global trade
China Railway Express, which started its journey from Xian, China, carries an electronic product load equivalent to 42 tractors.
"With an investment of $754 billion, we have strengthened our transport and communications infrastructure and completed the missing links on international transport routes," Turhan said. He said this railway line, which has been in operation since Oct. 30, 2017, has reduced cargo transportation time between China and Turkey from a month to 12 days.
Turhan said with the integration of Marmaray in the route, transportation time between Far East Asia and Western Europe has been reduced to 18 days.
