There are rail links from Turkmenistan to Towraghondi and Uzbekistan to Hayratan, both of which are now carrying significant regular traffic. Iran is currently building a new standard gauge railway to Herat, and there are serious proposals for a railway to serve a Chinese copper mining concession.

I want to point out small mistake, Herat is not in the east but West. which has been mentioned in the last but 4 para (last 3rd line). Thank you for the detail information how UNHAS and WFP facing the challenges in the war torned country, Afghanistan.
