Factos históricos (Inglês) |
The company was built in 1903. It originally secured a concession given to the Anatolian Railway Company to build a railway from Konia to Baghdad to the Persian Gulf. This project was driven by the Deutsche Bank, while acting in the interest of the German Empire. The First World War interrupted the project. At that time, just a part of Eskisehir to Ankara, and the mountain railway through the Taurus Mountains were completed. In 1932 the lines which were at Mesopotamian territory came to Iraq. There was no compensation therefore. Railway track at the Anatolian territory came in 1923 to Turkey. In 1940 the last part of the approximately 3,200 kilometres of railway track were completed. |
