mineral-rich area, but there has been little progress; other plans

made jointly with Egypt would establish a rail line from As Sallum,

Egypt, to Tobruk with completion originally set for mid-1994; Libya

signed contracts with two private companies - Bahne of Egypt and Jez

Sistemas Ferroviarios of Spain - in 1998 for the supply of crossings
