Hi...
Not much help, but I am working on this myself at the moment thought an agent (Stan Tours).
I believe Toshkent (UZB) or Dashanbe (TAJ) are the best places to apply for the TURK transit visa... Though i think waiting times are about 10 days and you MUST have a visa for Iran or AZJ and ferry ticket to prove your transiting, and a fixed route etc...
I would appreciate if anybody has any experience or more info of doing this...

turmenistan visa
Hi
David from StanTours is unable to help you with the application and due process of Turkmenistan transit visas. He can however help with standard tourist visas. We applied for our Turkmenistan transit visa - applied for a 5 day transit - whilst in Dushanbe. No problems at all. have a read here if you want all info.
2ridetheworld.com : diary
We required the Express' service and paid $85 per visa. In order to obtain the transit visa you must have the visas of the country you are entering from and exiting to. In our case this was our visa for Uzbekistan and our visa into Iran.
The tourist visa is a whole other deal! and way more $$$ and paperwork. To tell the truth we only really needed 3 days to transit but always like to be on the safe side so those couple of extra days were great.
cheers

Lisa, out of interest, did you get your Iran visa in Toshkent UZB (if so any tips!) and did you need to provide details of your route through TURK??
Cheers.
