I will be travelling in the Mideast soon.

I'll let folks know what trains I travel, and how I find them!

I'm glad you didn't mean Syria, Jordan or Iraq when you said "middle eastern." US Mideast sounds so much safer and fun! (-:

Just in case you DO mean the Middle East, here's a wonderful website for train travel just about anywhere in the world: http://www.seat61.com .

It certainly appears that the Israel Railways offer frequent service through the State:
