Qalaa Holding announced that its subsidiary Rift Valley Railways will receive the first delivery of 20 locomo­tives acquired from General Electric in the United States in September.

This order will complement the additional 14 trains that are being refurbished and leased, doubling the fleet of locomotives operating on the main line.

In a related development , Qalaa's ASCOM Geology and Mining has been chosen to work on a multi-billion dollar project to expand the Suez Canal by building a new canal alongside it.

Two other Qalaa companies, energy sector firm Mashreq and river transport company Nile Logistics, are also working on the project, Qalaa added.
