World Rail Atlas and Historical Summary: Vol. 8 The Middle East and Caucasus

The "World Rail Atlas and historical summary of the Middle East and Caucasus" is the first such publication in an emerging series that will cover all parts of Europe, Africa, Asia, Australasia and the Americas. This volume is the eighth in a series of 20, released as such due to the availability of material. It covers the following countries: Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bahrain, Cyprus, Georgia, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Palestine, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, and Yemen. This is the first time that a rail atlas is published for most of these countries.

The "World Rail Atlas" presents several countries' railway networks diagrammatically represented in print for the first time ever, save for minimal and obscure diagrams produced through the years, and together with all distances shown to the nearest tenth of a kilometre, where known, gives as complete a picture as is possible at this stage.
