GCC railway set to receive final approval

and there would be a wagon destinction...

this wagon are for only ladies...

another wagon for men...

travel is by scheme...

NO BACHELORS ALLOWED, its a FAMILY DAY...lol

this is the safest country ever to operate on trains...

even every entry, no security.

not even METAL DETECTORS are built in ...

but only with BAD ODORS DETECTORS..

POSITIVE PASSENGERS shall be re-routed... lol

~~Life's Cycle~~~

You will see guys trying to race with the train.

Not withstanding the current finacial crisis, this is aimed at alleviating a future one, as well as making our roads safer by putting all the container traffic on trains

every engineers has solutions to every marvels they'd made...

i thinked that the railways will be designed as underground... so that in times of sandstorms rails shall be kept passable all the time...

perhaps engineers are thinking the same way too... would be easier for them to dig on desert and laid steel rails than to erect first costly reinforced materials prior to laying of rails...

~~Life's Cycle~~~

This is linked to the "Causeway"...and is expected to link right up to China.

From Kuwait - Iraq - Iran -Afghanisthan? - China.

It is one of the most ambitious projects in the World right now...most of the part is vague (or top secret).

Then Again Kuwait and other GCC countries are having financial difficulties.

So whether this project will even take off is still a big question mark.

yea the rail track will get covered in sands

hmm so i think they will try to build it bit lil high and away from the dune areas i think

and yea as soon you approach the KSA border you have to cover your head atleast

the world's first train with blacked-out windows! And kids hanging out the windows :)

no majnoon,its the men who should be locked up in a black train with no windows..:)

different rules on 'exit permit' in this kind of transport.

And don't you think this is one way of boosting tourism industry in GCC? (BUt what sort of tourist spots would that be? sand dunes?)

will be locked in a black train car with no window.

“A lot of the people who keep a gun at home for safety are the same ones who refuse to wear a seat belt”

so i think before they start working on the project they need to do away with exit permit, lol...

Are you going to have to carry an abaya to wear through Saudi?

but it kinda makes it redundent if you do not have your employers permission to travel.

Wouldn't the tracks get covered in sand?

I hope this will push thru then I can travel by train from Doha to GCC countries.
