Relics of the Classic Hedjaz Railway in Saudi Arabia, 2024/5 - Part 7

Thomas Kautzor writes of his visit between 3rd and 5th May 2024 and a further 4 day visit in December 2025 (parts 6 and 7).



The pictures on this page come from Thomas's 2025 visit and the railway ones were taken between km 1121 and km 1320. Some of these places were also visited in 2024 and there are appropriate links where that is the case.

km 1121, see also Part 3.

km 1123, Bridge N°10

km 1245, Al Buwayr, see also Part 4.

km 1315, Muteid.

km 1320, Madinah Station.

NorthWestBus, the successors of SAPTCO in North-Western Saudi Arabia, operate two daily bus services between Madinah, Al Ula and Tabuk, one leaving in the morning and the other traveling overnight. These can be considered as the replacement bus service for the Hejaz Railway.

The first two pictures were taken at Madinah and the third at Tabuk.
