Egypt to Receive New Batch of Russian Trains Soon

Egypt is set to receive a new batch of Russian trains in mid-January 2022.

 

This comes within the framework of the largest railway deal ever signed between Cairo, and Moscow.

The batch will be shipped from Russia by sea to the Alexandria port. Egypt has so far received 478 normal vehicles with dynamic ventilation.

It is worth mentioning that the deal, signed between the Egyptian Railways Authority and the Russian-Hungarian Transmash Holding company, is the largest in the history of Egypt’s railways, with a value of $1.8 billion.
