23 July 2010 [18:07] - TODAY.AZ
The train traffic, delayed due to explosion in Inchkhe-Izbirbash, has been restored, Azerbaijani Railways passenger carriages department head Elyar Muradov said.
"The train traffic has been restored. There is no delays in train traffic any more," Muradov said.

An explosion occurred today at 10:00 a.m. Baku time. No one was injured. Azerbaijani Railways Chief Engineer Gurban Nazirov said ticket sales on trains traveling from Azerbaijan through Russia have significantly dropped this year due to blasts in Dagestan.

He added that the explosions have negatively affected passenger and freight traffic. Azerbaijani Railways passes through Dagestan on route to Moscow, St. Petersburg, Rostov, Tyumen, Kiev, and Kharkov, among other cities.
