I look at the open field where the SCR will pass through and am sure unless guarded by a fence or something some guys will rest on it and train find them there.

You see with the current train you can hear some sound from a far and run away before it get to your location and even the guys get crushed..at one120Kms you will be caught waking up

Great. This was the right move which ever way.

Just for curisity sake what will be the maximum speed for the train..I want to calculate how long it will take from Msa to NBI

Must be faxe.
Speed 120 km/h


120 km/hr for passenger train and 80km/hr for cargo train

That would be great.it would mean getting to Msa in approx 5hrs. I hear the current reli will take you days



Good stuff Applause

So I can eat fish in Msa for lunch and be back in Nbo before dark?

Shinese rejects Kenyan cement

Quote:
While the agreement between the Kenya government and the Chinese contractor provides that 40 per cent of the construction material be procured from local manufacturers, the issue of quality and standards could affect the envisaged benefits to local industries.

“The issue of 40 per cent local content is an understanding between the government and the contractor,” said Mr Maina.
