First Kenyans to Experience Kenya Railways' Premium Class for 12,000! ❤️Exclusive Look Inside

[@gabrielwence]

As a Tanzanian , I'm thrilled to see the progress of Kenya's Standard Gauge Railway! It's an inspiring step towards enhancing regional connectivity and economic growth. Together, we can pave the way for greater collaboration in East Africa!

[@jereking254]

A lovely and informative feature video. Kudos. I have leant a lot about the new Premium Class in Madaraka Express. What I would urge KR to do is to modify the Economy class so that it can at least march the comfort of a bus. It's too tiring from Nairobi to Mombasa and the seating arrangement should s flexible as in that Premium; if some people are travelling in a group, they should be able to turn the seats to face each other. Travelling should be an enjoyable experience and not a punishment.

[@NaturalktedyEdna]

❤️❤️❤️

[@benjaminmwaria238]

I think it has already been done. There are new coaches for economy class with a different sitting arrangement

Here in America we have where you can sleep you have a porter you have your own private shower so for example going from Chicago to California is a 5-day trip is a 20 hour trip. Because you would take a New York train from New York City and that train would go to Chicago and you be in Chicago around 1:00 p.m. the next day.

[@ImpGaming]

Seems nice, i would definately pay this. I did take the train from mombasa to nairobi in the cheapest class and the seats were terribly uncomfortable, plus a ton of people. This is very nice, a bit pricey tho, is comparable to a plane ticket. I would pay for it since i enjoyed the nice view from the train, seeing animals etc, was a nice experience. IF in a rush tho, 5 to 6 hours in a train vs 2 hours on a plane... for the same price mmmm. Good addition to the transportation offer tho.
