The Georgian Railway is serving the two very important Black Sea ports,
Poti and Batumi. There is a rail connection to Russia. Some of the
lines are in very difficult terrain, so they are heavily graded with
narrow curves.
In 1999 GR produced 355 million passenger-km and 9492 million tonne-km
of freight. The number of electric locomotives was 218, and 175
diesels.
