First cargo train from China leaves for Karachi

.
Brothers the railway link will take time as they will build a long tunnel first to overcome the weather issues. This will become one of the great wonders of the world...and it will test Chinese engineering to the highest level.

If there is one country on this planet that can pull it off it is our brother China. No doubt about it. Piercing through mountains and seas to achieve success.

If there's any country in the world which can complete the project then the Chinese can do it. They did the Three Georges Dam and even though this is far more difficult from an engineering prospective..I have trust in their capability.

It was reported in 2014 whereby a project to link Pakistan-China was on table and was discussed and finally started, as of around 1872 KM or so. The feasibility report of such track up-gradation from Karachi to Hawalian is already done that we had Chinese engineers with us in this regard. Taxila Khunjrab track will be connecting China. A bit of glimpse as under:-

Even the US trusts chinese engineering prowess.

In movie 2012, the chinese built the modern Noah's ark to rescue humanity. In The martian, chinese rocket was used to resupply the spaceship to mars after the US rocket exploded after take-off. In Gravity, the reenrty module of chinese space station rescued the main protagonist.

China, Pakistan launch direct rail and sea freight service
35 MINS AGO BY WEB DESK
China-Pakistan-launch-direct-rail-and-sea-freight-service.jpg



Direct rail and sea freight service have been launched between Pakistan and China. The service links China’s Yunnan province with Pakistan’s largest city Karachi.

On Wednesday a cargo train loaded with commodities left Kunming in China for Karachi, marking the opening of the new route.

The new service will cut transport cost by 50 per cent.
-----------------
its jus the beginning.... Stay tuned for more.. for now it will be a mix of rail, road & sea freight ..... later it will be full rail link... Insha'Allah..... this thing is becoming a reality now... cant wait to see ... we connecting with Turkey, Iran & others who are interested the same way...

The feasibility report for Kashgar-Havelian rail link is coming up to $10 billion.. till then the goods will be traveling via road from Kashgar to haveliann dry port. And by rail from there to karachi. it will cost an extra couple days of loading/unloading compared to a rail link with no break of guage.

If there is a train from Kashgar to Karachi, I just can't image it. How convenience is that!

We worked together and made Karakoram highway, we can do this as well

I've traveled most parts of GB and based on my little knowledge, a rail link won't be an issue till. Chilas.. From there to khubjerab it won't necessarily run parallel to kkh but it's own path with fewer curves. More tunnels and bridges and of course powerful engines to pull the freight.

Any benefit for pakistan ?just asking question. hope people dnt mind.

The key challenge will be tunneling through the mountain and building a platform that is earthquake proof as well. The engines would also have to be powerful, however, the Chinese already have that technology. When this is completed not only will this become a great wonder of the world, however, a large chunk of west and central China's exports will go through Pakistan. Western people have been laughing at Chinese ghost cities....but what those idiots don't realize is that China expects its eastern population to move into these areas, therefore new industries will spring up all the way into Pakistan. This is my opinion....I could be wrong.
