israr | 7 years ago | Reply MashaAllah good deal but no details given by tribune :) anyway i think mardan to saidu sharif is good tourism attraction also the chitral to gilgit means goods and passenger trains with alternate day service will mean you can make huge profits and with circular railway connecting mardan with peshawar swat to mardan connection is great same goes with dik to kohat means dik to phw via kohat so all we need is a little touch between gilgit to kohat by road and then get the goods on the train to get the goods to dik, i hope this goes through karak so the oil can be transported to kohat as well and to dik
