Israel Railways

state operator

State-owned passenger and freight rail operator. The Ashdod-Eilat land bridge story (rail freight as a Suez alternative) runs through its freight division.

Why it matters\n\nIsrael Railways is the institution that would have to deliver the Ashdod-Eilat freight corridor that predates IMEC. Its freight capex, double-tracking program, and connection to port terminals determine whether the land bridge is real or rhetorical.
