#Project254

A journey through Kenya's old railway line that has been in existence for almost a century. When it comes to the transportation of cargo from Nairobi to the Malaba border and beyond, Kenya's old Meter Gauge Railway (MGR) gets the job done.

amazing development ....congrats mr president you have done it

[@mohabatkhanmalak1161]

Greetings from New Zealand, wish you success and all the best in this project. We want to see the SGR reaching Rwanda and South Sudan, there is great potential for economic development in agriculture, mining and industries for these countries.

I Salute this engines they landed in the country in 1972 and they are still in service.

Please also remember those old railway passengers station's especially Nakuru eldoret Kisumu since no sgr in these areas.

Way to go.

What Kenya Railways needs to do.....is to visit Tanzania Railways for "catch up training" on MGR operation. That shunting yard at the KR Hq is like a sight from zombie apocalypse!

[@oliverwabwire2836]

Wow!!...the only confidence inspiring item about the MGR as it is now is the solid architecture of the KR HQ building along Haile salasie ave. The rolling stock, track and engines....are like a scene from Gotham City. KR should borrow a leaf from our Tz brothers on how to operate a functional MGR ...efficiently. (Of course a good way to start is by not plundering it in the first place)

These High Speed Rail Road will make Kenya a Powerhouse NATION in The Region. Good wishes to Kenya's People. The west Only Took Never Build Anything for African Nations.

MGR management please do something about the grass its taking over the old rails

[@ohondajoshua4500]

Nice engine sound from General Electric Engine 93 class.

[@gillbates4644]

why is no one taking cameras into the new stations? we want to see how they look inside!

[@peterchege5301]

Please would like Nakuru Eldoret kitale rehabilitated.

[@isaacruriri7864]

We want talks on how we export more (e.i from Nairobi to Mombasa) not import (Mombasa to Nairobi) please.

[@oliverwabwire2836]

Far and away the most poignant point in this thread!

If little better efforts were put into this it would have been more economically viable for needs and get better economic growth boosting sustainable development business plan

Just turn on English caption on 08:29.😜😜

[@iandiru6433]

Will there be passenger trains on the same MGR?

[@ast0nv8]

Please rebuild it. It's so old and inefficient that's it's embarrassing.

[@roykanyi]

MGR only mentioned 10 minutes into the video🤦‍♂️

[@njosh0505]

You want to tell me only one line that cost that much

[@MarcoLeeJones]

how much do you expect? basically all the materials and equipment are imported from China, so it's supposed be expensive. and look at the fascinating stations, those the best stations you can find in whole Africa.

[@xingxing2225]

@@MarcoLeeJones I think so. really perfect stations. even better than most of the stations in China. modern.

@@natureworld295 you are simply people who think are smart just because they can speak fluent English, English is just a language, that's why African countries are embracing Swahili starting with south Africa, Namibia,I know you will call them fool's, but the are better than Kenya.

This is the first time I see a train (SGR) that doesn’t go to any cities or town. A train to nowhere.

You need to have your eyes checked

[@pinchesmbuche4354]

Nairobi is no where .

[@kevin85ify]

When the mgr was being built, the britons called it the train to nowhere. But that mgr built Nairobi, one of the largest cities in africa. In fact britons called the mgr lunatic express, thinking it was an exercise in futility.
