The fourth in succession high-speed Spanish train Talgo arrived in Tashkent. The new train is designed to carry 287 people. Unlike the one brought in 2011, the fourth one is different with two additional economy-class cars, which have increased the number of seats by 72.
Let us recall that another Spanish Talgo was delivered to the capital earlier in March. Today, it runs on the route Tashkent-Bukhara-Tashkent. The timetable is currently being rescheduled for Afrosiyob electric trains due to the delivery of the fourth rolling stock.
Domestic railways have been operating trains and passenger cars by the Spanish Talgo for more than five years. They were named after the ancient settlement Afrosiyob, and serve passengers on the route Tashkent-Karshi, Tashkent-Bukhara, Tashkent-Samarkand.
