Railway Operators in Jordan

JHR - Jordan Hedjaz Railway

Network length, gauge and electrification (2003):

JHR operates freight and tourist trains in Jordan. Apart from American (GM) diesel locomotives they still have some operational steam locomotives that can be hired.
The line runs from the Syrian border to Amman and continues to Maían, which is part of the former line from Damascus to Mecca. But freight trains normally only reach Quasir um El-Heeran, with tourist trains reaching Quatrana. South of here up to the mines at Menzil is only used for occasional exchanging locomotives.
