The Sahel Train is an electrified, metre gauge railway and suburban rail line with trains serving Sousse and Mahdia, with a spur to Monastir, in Tunisia.[1] The 73 kilometres (45 mi) line has overhead electrification at 25 kV, 50 Hz. Including a triangular junction west of Gare Habib Bourguiba Monastir, the line is mostly double track. However, south of the large multi-platform station at Moknine, the line becomes single track with a limited number of passing loops at stations including Mahdia tourist-Zone and Téboulba.
