Hope this model is for hauling cargo and the passenger one will be easier on the eye, like be more modern looking.

A radical new proposal for Phase Two of the Standard Gauge Railway will cut off a huge chunk of the Nairobi National Park.

The proposed railway alignment obtained exclusively by the Star shows the new design that curves deep into the Park for about 50km before exiting near the Kenya Wildlife Service main gate on Langata road.

The new SGR route will detour from Imara Daima Railway line over Mombasa Road joining the Southern Bypass near the Ole Sereni hotel. It will then run parallel to the bypass up to the Emergency Gate along the Southern Bypass near the Carnivore restaurant. The new railway will then pass through Hyena Dam, the Ivory Burning site, Narogomon dam and down to the Kingfisher picnic site.

From there, the line will run to the Central Workshop opposite Multimedia University on Magadi road, skirt the tented Camp and forest area near Banda school, pass the KWS HQ before exiting at the Langata gate to Lenana.
