Azerbaijan will buy some 30 new railroad passenger cars under this agreement, according to the department head.
"The new cars will be purchased under the state program for development of Azerbaijan`s railway transport for 2009-2014," Hasanov stressed.
He underscored that this year is a deadline for implementation of the state program, but despite this, currently a new state program is under development and it is also likely to cover a five-year period.
The new passenger cars will be used after commissioning the Baku-Tbilisi-Kars railway as well. It is planned to put this railway into operation in 2015.
The department head went on to add that the work carried out under this project is at the final stage both on Georgian and Turkish territory.
