Kenya has the most amazing train Station in Africa

The Mombasa - Nairobi Standard gauge Railway is a Standard gauge Railway (SGR) in kenya that connects the large Indian Ocean city of Mombasa with Nairobi the country's Capital city.


At a cost of US $3.6 Billion, the SGR is the Kenya's most expensive infrastructure projects since independence.
The prime contractor CRBC which hired 25000 Kenyans to work on the railway CRBC's holding company is contracted to operate the line for its first 5 years.

An extension from Nairobi to Naivasha was completed in October 2019.

Weka na train bhana..alaf nasikia wachina wanataka ichukua hiyo..Hadi Deni liishe
 
Yale umeyasikia ni porojo tu, tafuta kwa google what Chinese said about the project, insinuations za watu wachana nazo. Ambassador wa China alikana such rumours, na Kenya sio masikini tushindwe kulipa., get your facts right kaka, hakuna jambo kama hilo, tutalipa. Now rudi kwa stations.,[emoji23][emoji23]

Kwenye station kwakwwli hongera... lakini kwenye train mmm!!! [emoji3][emoji3]
 
Chinya death trap, naona bendera nyekundu yenye nyota tano ikipepea ikulu ya nairobi
 
Sisi tuna msemo "ukipenda boga penda na ua lake".

Mambo ya kusifia station halafu unaacha kinachozitumia ni dalili ya ubabaishaji[emoji23][emoji23][emoji23].
 
Dah nasisi tutawafikia tumpe Magufuli amalizie ngwe yake ya pili tena tutawazidi
 
The highest court of Kenya has recently ruled out that your SGR project is illegal due to massive corruption in the tendering process...

No wonder Mchina kawajengea stations to no where, kuwafumba macho, halafu kaleta gari moshi za 18th century....

Mtu mwenye akili timamu huwezi kushabikia stations wakati gari moshi ni za ovyo na reli inaishia porini Naivasha na Suswa. Hivi wakenya mtaamka lini?
 
Hakuna station ya sgr Tz au Ethiopia inaweza fikia ata the smallest station ya Kenya.
 

Hahah nimefatilia ile station ya Suswa kumbe iko kwenye shamba la bwana mkubwa! Alipigwa fidia ya maana ndio station ikajengwa pale.. hakika na mazao ya shamba lake la Suswa kayapatia usafiri wa kudumu. Ndio maana station iko porini mbali na watu.

Chapombe nomaaa...
