China's container economy is taking to land travel.

The first regular container train linking China to the Middle East is unveiled in Yiwu, East China's Zhejiang province, Jan 28, 2016. The train will exit China through Alataw Pass in Northwest China's Xinjiang and pass through Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan before reaching its destination Tehran, capital of Iran, completing a 14-day and 10,399-kilometer journey.

A container train linking China (click here) and Iran departed from Yiwu City in east China's Zhejiang Province loaded with Chinese small commodities on Thursday morning.

According to the train's operator, Yiwu Tianmeng industry investment company, it is the first regular container train linking China to the Middle East.

Iran is hungry for a return to life with an economy and variety. Europe is seeking an economic relationship with Iran and it appears China simply could not wait. China had prepared for the closing of the agreement. It will be interesting to see how vibrant Iran's economy becomes with all this influx of returned international trade. 

I am happy for the Iranian people. They deserve this returned economy. They have made all the decisions leading to peace and compliance of the non-proliferation treaty. 

Americans interested in exporting and bring balance to trade needs to realize countries like Iran are viable trade partners.
