Qatar - Bahrain Rail Link

New plans to build a super-fast railway will see many of the Gulf states linked together for the first time.

Governments from all six Arab states have agreed to build the 2000 km (1243 miles) rail network, with work due to start in 2011, with completion expected in 2017.

Recently, the governments of Qatar and Bahrain agreed to build the Bahrain Causeway, which will be the longest in the world.
