Has anyone taken a ride in these trains. Am i the only one complaining of very uncomfortable seats(2nd class coach). I swear the seats of any standard bus or matatu are more comfy
The only time you should be looking down on others is when you are helping them up.

Hiyo sijui but the actual second class (they call it either premier or "first class") are way better that a ndege. Very comfy, plus I found the ride way way better than ndege - except the drive to/fro terminus and booking procedure.

Hii ni ile siasa duni ya wakenya (pssst...NASA).

SGR is very comfortable and more convenient than bus.

You should try it.

I have not used it but the info I get from those who have used it is that this is the best thing that happened to travel between Nairobi and Mombasa.

So for me you are part of the team that sees nothing good in Ke.
