Transport Since construction of this railway line in 1921, it has been isolated, with no through connection to any other Iranian Railway system. Around 2007, steps were taken to build a link from the rest of the Iranian Railway system via Bam to connect with the Pakistan Railway system. This link is now finished. As the gauges of the Iranian and Pakistan railways are different, being standard gauge and  broad gauge respectively, a break-of-gauge station and transshipment hub (or transloading hub) were built at Zahedan.
