In January 2023 me and my friend Vyatich went to Mauritania to ride one of the longest freight trains in the world. These freight trains run across Sahara desert and transfer iron ore from Zouerat mines to Nouadhibou sea port. Our journeys begins from exploring local life in the capital city of Nouakchott, after which we move to Noadhibou to catch one of the longest freight trains in the world to Zouerat. On the way back to Noadhibou we make a stop at intermediate station of Choum to explore one of the rarely discussed locations nearby - the Choum railway tunnel, designed to avoid crossing the territory of Western Sahara by trains.
