The infrastructure associated with this SGR is amazing, that nairobi station looks better than even JKIA, na hiyo ya mombasani, wacha tu.
you have to give it to the Chinese, they can do a nice job.


That is why our SGR is more expensive coz apart from the reli, it included all the other infrastructure such as train stations, locomotives, coaches, wagons etc - and even land acquisition from mbs to nairobi.

The initial test run at just above 120kph, if the signaling system works as intended it means we will see nairobi to mombasa in under 4 hrs.
We wait and see

How did the locomotive go over 120, when it redlines at 100? I have seen the locomotive myself and confirm this.
