By the AFREEQUE newsroom, based on Maghrebemergent
Algeria’s National Railway Transport Company restored the direct link between Annaba and Tunis on 21 October 2026, after it was suspended for 20 days because of work on the Algerian network. Services have resumed, including on the section between Aïn El Senour and Souk Ahras, according to the Algerian railway company.
The resumption follows the completion of work by the National Agency for Studies and Monitoring of Railway Investment Projects on the section between Aïn El Senour and Souk Ahras, in Souk Ahras province. The SNTF says the train will also run from Tunis to Annaba.
The service is used in particular by Algerian and Tunisian tourists. It is operated by a conventional diesel train on a non-electrified line, Maghrebemergent reports.
