The launch of the train has opened up a new international logistics channel for Ningxia to cross the Caspian Sea into West Asian countries for the first time, which is of great significance to promoting economic and trade exchanges between Ningxia and Iran, official Chinese media reported.
The route covers 8,500 kilometres and takes about 20 days to reach Anzali, which saves about 20 days compared with traditional shipping. Compared with the original Yinchuan-Tehran International freight railway line, the new route saves 6,000 yuan per box.
