Although, there is a new rail line the Chinese built to link Tehran and China. The first train ran on May 10th out of China, arriving in Tehran on May 24th. Quicker than going by sea. It was designed as an alternative to sending oil by sea.

Oddly, no reports of any other trains running since that first one.
