The Harworb Line was the initial railroad constructed as part of the Kibar-Kûn project. Originating from the rail junction of Bolnalmak, it extends in a southeastern direction to the craggy city of Harworb. Completed in the late 1500s, the line spans a distance of 90 miles.

The Tunzâr Span proved to be the most challenging aspect of this railway's construction. Until this point, no bridge had crossed the Tunzâr for hundreds of miles in either direction, rendering it a strategic asset that required fortification. The bridge's colossal pylons, akin to castle towers, supported not only the train tracks but also a separate footbridge, and were sizable enough to house a garrison of thousands. To offset the Fargimdal engineers' penchant for over-engineering and the overall construction costs, Phorngoad Rail implemented a system of tolls, a measure approved by the Fargimdal authorities in exchange for maintaining a substantial military presence at the bridge.
