Freight rail services gather pace

Freight rail shipments have gained traction since commercial rail traffic resumed on the Kingdom’s sole operational railway line in 2013, but Royal Railway, the private company with a 30-year concession to operate the Kingdom’s railway network, is pressing for more growth as it seeks to triple the current volume of cargo.

“In 2013, we were hauling on average about 50 containers a month. Now we are averaging about 2,000 to 2,500 containers per month,” said John Guiry, CEO of Royal Railway.

He said the target is to haul 6,000 containers per month “to get full utilisation of the railway line,” adding that the railway had seen a marketable increase in transport, primarily for rice, garments, fertiliser and cars.
