Title: Tanzania tests electric train on new SGR line
Post by: Kadudu on July 06, 2022, 01:39:48 PM
Our Jubilee project was planned to line a few people's pockets. Now Pundit will tell us it is not so bad to steal. That project price was inflated 100%. Even the running of SGR is a con.

At $1.92 billion, Tanzania appears to have secured the cheapest railway construction deal in the region, given that it will be spending nearly half of what Kenya spent to build the first phase from Mombasa to Nairobi.

Kenya’s line between Mombasa and Nairobi, which was slightly longer by about 50 kilometres, was constructed at a cost of $3.8 billion.
