Rail Cargo Movement Between India and Nepal Gets Major Boost

India and Nepal sign a Letter of Exchange (LoE) to the India-Nepal Rail Services Agreement (RSA) 2004. The liberalization will particularly reduce transportation costs for automobiles and certain other products whose carriage takes place in special wagons. Wagons owned by Nepal Railway Company will also be authorized to carry Nepal-bound freight (inbound and outbound on Kolkata/Haldia to Biratnagar/Birganj routes) over the Indian Railways network as per IR standards and procedures.
