ArmInfo. During negotiations in Yerevan, representatives of the South Caucasus Railway and Georgian Railway reached a number of agreements on mutual passenger transportation.
In particular, as reported by the press service of SCR, a decision was made to establish a high-speed, branded train service on the Yerevan-Batumi-Yerevan route during the 2026 summer season. The parties approved a schedule for the train, departing every other day, from June 14 to October 1, 2026. The railway operators also agreed to promptly exchange passenger information to reduce train downtime at border checkpoints.
Furthermore, the parties agreed to implement a Yerevan-Batumi-Yerevan tourist route commissioned by the Czech company Gepard Express from July 4 to 12. The plan is to organize the transportation of a group of tourists, primarily from the Czech Republic, with accommodations on board SCR carriages and stops along the way to explore the sights of Armenia and Georgia. SCR successfully launched the first such route in 2025.
