ArmInfo. The postal-baggage car of Tbilisi-Yerevan train was detached
in the course of technical examination at Ayrum frontier locomotive
changing point early in the morning on December 10 2009.
The press-service of the South Caucasus Railway CJSC told ArmInfo the
reason was over-freighting of the car that threatened the safety of the
train. The given fact aroused protest by passengers who blocked the
railway and did not allow the train to depart. This made the railway
officers call for representatives of the territorial law-enforcement:
State Security Committee, Prosecutor's Office. The incident paralyzed
the activity of the locomotive changing point and the passenger train
was late to the destination point for 5 hours. A commission comprising
representatives of the leadership and various technical services of
the railway has been set up to investigate the fact.
South Caucasian Railway CJSC is the subsidiary (100%) of the Russian
Railways CJSC. The contract of concession of the Armenian Railroad
CJSC for 30 years with a 10-year renewable period was signed in
Yerevan on February 13 2008.
