Heavy and unprecedented rainfall in Lorestan province has disrupted train traffic on the southern route. These weather conditions have led to the cancellation of several rail journeys and created problems for passengers. Particularly in routes affected by recent rainfall, hillside erosion and rockfalls onto the railway lines have complicated the situation.
Impact of Rainfall on Railway Lines
According to railway officials, several points in different blocks of the southern railway lines have been blocked due to weather conditions. This disruption has not only affected train traffic but also raised concerns for passenger safety. In such conditions, operational and technical teams from the railway, along with specialized equipment and machinery, have been dispatched to the site to begin reopening the route as quickly as possible.
