[edit]

The pass discussed and refered in this artile is infact khojak Pass which connects Pakistan and Afghanistan . Bolan pass connects two pakistani provices of Sind and Boluchistan

question...

[edit]

Currently, the article says: "Traditionally, the Brahui of the Kurd tribe are in charge of the law and order situation through the Pass area." But the Brahui article says nothing about Kurds. I suspect that, if there is a Kurd sub-tribe of the Brahui, it is not related to the Kurds who live in Turkey, Syria, Iraq and Iran. Either it should be delinked, of linked to something like: Kurd (Brahui). -- Geo Swan (talk) 05:54, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

it would be great to get a photo from the point of view that the drawing was made: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b5/Bolan_Pass_1842.jpg as it's quite impressive. 90.173.153.207 (talk) 16:30, 13 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Railway history

[edit]

The description of the railway is incorrect. The original main route to the east is no longer a through route. Only a part of it is in use today. All through trains now take the Bolan pass route. There are better descriptions of the railway history on line. The whole section needs rewriting. Currently it's simply a copy of an old description of the line when both the east and west loops were operating together. The western Bolan pass route was a secondary route with severe 4% grades so the eastern loop was preferred but was subject to constant washouts so was abandoned. 195.32.52.145 (talk) 23:56, 19 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
