Etihad Rail: what the route looks like – The National

The railway line between Abu Dhabi and Dubai has been joined up, authorities announced on Tuesday.

This link between the two emirates stretches for 256 kilometres and includes 29 bridges, 60 crossings and 137 drainage channels.

The Abu Dhabi to Dubai segment, however, is just part of Etihad Rail’s network, which will run for 1,200 kilometres across the UAE, from the border of Saudi Arabia to Oman.
