Pakistan Railways sets record with longest, heaviest freight train run in history

Pakistan Railways has set a record with the longest and heaviest freight train run in their history.

According to the spokesperson, the freight train, stretching over 2,500 feet and comprising fifty coaches, was propelled by the robust GE U40 locomotive engine.

Departing from Karachi, the train carried over 3,000 tons of cargo to Kotri.

This initiative will not only reduce load on road traffic but also contribute to environmental preservation by minimizing pollution.
