The February 2013 issue of Modern Railways magazine has a two-page article on Afghan railways by John Glover, “Starting from scratch in Afghanistan”.

Based on a lecture by Richard Brown at the Railway Study Association on 5 December 2012, it covers the political, policy and economic situations, the new line to Mazar-i-Sharif and the gauge question.

There are photos by David Brice showing wagons being unloaded in Naibabad and 2TEM10 locomotives.
