The Pakistan-Iran rail service was suspended after the derailment of a freight train moving from Iran to Balochistan’s capital on Friday. Railway officials confirmed that five bogies of a freight train derailed which resulted in the suspension of the Pakistan-Iran railway service.

They said that the Pakistan Railways team was working to restore the railway track. The affected freight train was transporting goods from Iran to Quetta, they added.

The officials said that the railway track being used for international trade was in a dilapidated state which disrupted the movement of cargo trains multiple times.
