Any one with pictures??

Is this a new rail line or is it an existing line with new a station?

What is the cost of using a mat since the expected train ride prices are unrealistic, or who are expected to use these trains at that price?



The articles in the newspaper do not give proper details and the picture looks like it was taken with a Nokia 3310.

@eboomerang the trains are meant for motorists.. The prices are cheaper than fuel + parking fees in town combined!

Fuel is about 500-1000 per day and parking in town is 250shs per day!

It sure will make economic sense for motorists esp those that park at railways. However there are many other reasons for driving to town e.g. Partying and staying late in town or running errands. That said, I want a ride.

From the face of it, the prices look unrealistic. Most users of rail transport are watu wa kawaida, the guy who waits for fares to go down.1. Wrong target market. 2. Not many people work around the rail transport, and i don't think they will be willing to walk up and down the city. I mean why do people buy cars; convinience, ease of movement and comfort. 3. Most of the passengers are standing. Why should i pay 100 to stand. It defeats logic. I'd rather be up early to avoid these inconviniences. I don't know why, but until the entire city transport is rationalized, this remains just but another white elephant.
