Naser-AI-Din Shah visited many modern institutions and European civilization works during his three travels to Europe. Then he decided to establish railway in Iran. The concession of estab­lishment and its put in working, granted to a Belgium engineer named "Fabious Bovatal". Sheikh Mohsen Khan, entitled Moshir-AI-Doleh, was elected to end the agreement and get the conces­sion. Bovatal formed a company to construct the aforesaid railway, and sold its stocks to a Russian contractor, Lazar Poliakof. This company established "Iran Railway and Tramway Com­pany". Finally, its construction finished in 1888 and the first 5-6 kilometers railway was estab­lished in Iran.
