Figure 11 reveals that OIC-Sub-Saharan Africa has very low share compared to the OIC-MENA

and OIC-Asia regions in terms of rail passengers carried in 2016. Egypt and Iran from the OIC-

MENA region and Pakistan, Indonesia, and Kazakhstan from the OIC-Asia are the leading

member states with regard to rail passengers.

As Figure 12 shows, rail freight carried in the OIC-Asia region, which predominantly belongs to

Kazakhstan, is far above other regions in 2016. In the OIC-MENA region, Iran and Turkey

together carried more than two-thirds of region’s rail freight.
