The aim is, by 2024, to replace 50% of the railways’ rolling stock, which includes locomotives and carriages, he added.
“In 2024 we shall have a railway highway ready in the section from the border with Serbia to the border with Turkey, as well as in the Plovdiv-Burgas section,” Minister Zhelyazkov added, as quoted by BGNES.
