Francorail loco back

Mark W Hemphill writes from Baghdad: “Francorail 4141 has returned to service. Possibly one more Francorail will return to service. Both are to be assigned to Al Qa’im to move phosphate rock from Akashat to Al Qa’aim, and limestone rock from Waha to Al Qa’im. Service to Al Qa’im resumed in June. The entire Western Corridor (Baghdad-Al Qa’im-Akashat, Bayji-Haqlaniya) has not had a train movement since October 2003.”
