Starting July 1, 2024, a container block train is sent from Xi’an, China to Baku, Azerbaijan via the Middle Corridor once a day, SİA informs, citing Azerbaijan Railways CJSC.
The first train, loaded with household items, vehicles, and spare parts, is expected to reach Baku in approximately 12 days after passing through Kazakhstan and the Caspian Sea.
Shipments from Xi’an began on January 1 of this year. Thanks to continuous and effective efforts to expand the potential of the Middle Corridor, these transports are now carried out daily starting from July 1.
The Middle Corridor, operational since 2014, spans from China through Kazakhstan, the Caspian Sea, Azerbaijan, and Georgia, ultimately reaching Türkiye and European countries. In 2023, cargo transportation on this route amounted to approximately 2.8 million tons—an 86% increase compared to 2022. Anticipated cargo volume for 2024 exceeds 4 million tons. By year-end, around 250 container block trains are scheduled to traverse the Middle Corridor.
