Maendeleo. We now have double stacked cargo trains.





Cargo to or from port?


Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly isn't it rather obvious?

Of course it's from the port headed to ICD Nairobi


It's both ways. Lots of tea, coffee, tobacco, macadamia, avocado, hides and skins, powdered milk, garments from EPZ, pyrethrum etc heading to mombasa for export.


Each train ferrying the equivalent of 140 x 20ft containers. That is same as having 70 trucks on the road. With 7 cargo trains per day that is 490 trucks off the road each day leading to safer roads and less wear and tear of the roads saving billions for wanjiku.


since the launch of SGR curiously accidents have reduced between Nairobi and Msa, still alot of accidents towards western Kenya


But fatalities increased this yeard'oh!
I care!

Am told these are empties being returned to the port

So you say that these are "empties being returned to the port" and then embed a Tweet saying they are heading to Nairobi from mbs. Unavuta bangi gani? Ama ni chida ya IQ?

Sigh, I don't get Kenyan thinking when it comes Land, a question
if you got 1 acre next to the SGR on the above picture how is that advantageous to you?
except for noise nothing else, I am those people who buy the plot furthest from the road as other scrabble for
road front plots for 2 times the price.
