The ottomans built them 1st and the Brits expanded and improved them later I don't think they are still in use. However that can change quickly if the fighting came to an end.

"total: 2,200 km
standard gauge: 2,200 km 1.435-m gauge (2005)"

Who built them? Unable to find out although I suspect they were originally improved by the Brits.
