In Other News:
i) The trains were a bargain at a cost of kes 1.1 billion for 11 DMUs complete with training on maintenance for our engineers, spare parts supply over the next 25 years. Compare that to new DMUs at a cost of kes 11.6 billion with a life expectation of only 10 years more than these refurbished DMUs.

ii) 9 New stations Thika, Kikuyu, Limuru, Ngong Town,Umoja,Athi river etc will be built, contracts have already been awarded.

iii) JKIA-CBD, embakasi - ruai line will start construction in early 2021. The JKIA line will easily make JKIA the hub of choice not just in the eac but in the entire east and central africa region. Factors that will make this happen are the new nairobi expressway from JKIA to James gichuru road, the new commuter train line which will make it very easy to enter and exit JKIA.

iv) Nairobi will gain immensely from these trains. It is estimated Nairobi loses up to kes 400 million monthly due to traffic problems. The efficiency of moving upto 3 million people monthly on these 11 DMUs will greatly improve the efficiency of workers reducing the losses suffered by Nairobi due to traffic problems.
 
More News On Kenyan Rail Network:
The Mombasa- Nairobi- Naivasha sgr line has out performed the projections of the feasibility report by running 14 cargo trains a day. A target that was achieved 5 years ahead of the projection by the feasibility report. It has out performed the sgr projects in Nigeria, ethiopia and other projects of similar magnitude in africa by carrying more cargo than any other rail network in sub saharan region apart from south africa.

Between January and July 2020 the sgr has moved over 210,000 TEUs between Mombasa-Nairobi-Naivasha, despite the covid 19 lockdowns.

In the year 2018-2019 Kenya ports authority recorded a larger profit of kes 15 billion compared to the previous year, due to efficiency introduced by the sgr, which has attracted more cargo to the Mombasa port.

Ugandan businesses have also confirmed that the cost of doing business for them has reduced by 40% largely attributed to Kenyan sgr which has introduced efficiency, predictability and lowered their transportation costs.

Over the last 2 years despite not breaking even, the Kenyan sgr has contributed 1.5% to GDP growth in Kenya. The economic impact of the Kenyan sgr to Uganda, south sudan etc has been praised.

Actually, the SGR has performed beyond the expectations of the feasibility report. The project has performed better than most railway projects of the same class in the world. Initially met with opposition by a section of politicians and civil society, now there is widespread support for the SGR across the social, political and economic spectrum, as the project’s benefits become self-evident.

The Kenyan sgr digital railway system is the same technology used by the chinese high speed rail system. Huawei, a leading global Information and Communications Technology (ICT) solutions provider, announced recently that the railway operational communications network it built for Kenya’s Mombasa-Nairobi rail project was put into commercial use.

The high speeds and short departure intervals of modern railway require secure, stable, and reliable train operations. Huawei’s Digital Railway Solution provides the Mombasa-Nairobi Railway with a full suite of core systems such as a highly-reliable, industry-leading railway operational communications system, a large-bandwidth unified transmission system which adopts soft and hard pipes to protect train control and other mission-critical services, a modular and highly efficient power supply system, and an environment monitoring system which enables great scalability and intelligent management. The core systems ensure safe train operations.

Huawei’s next-generation GSM-R solution has been deployed to build the train-to-ground communications network. With end-to-end redundancy backup and 99.999% availability, the network guarantees stable transmission of train control signals.

To date, Huawei’s Digital Railway Solution has been deployed to serve more than 100,000 kilometers of railway worldwide. Major digital railway projects include those in Germany and South Africa, as well as high-speed rail lines in China and Spain.

The same technology is also being installed to run the Nairobi Commuter Rail network and the MGR to Uganda

Aah wapi, wabangua korosho bado wanatumia hizo hizo silaha chakavu ambazo walitumia miaka ya 70s. Wapate hela wapi za kununua silaha za kisasa kama za KDF? Sio kwa hela kiduchu ambazo huwa wanagawiwa kwenye bajeti kila mwaka ambazo hazitoshi hata kununua magwanda mapya. Hivi walipata boots za kijeshi waka acha kuvalia 'gumboots'? [emoji1] Zero upgrade ya silaha kila mwaka ndio zao afadhali hata UPDF wa UG. Kila mwaka bajeti ya ulinzi ya Kenya na yakununua silaha mpya huwa ni zaidi ya bajeti ya nchi zote za AM kwa pamoja. 😀

Teargass,

Poleni jameni. Mnaringia mitumba? ata bora ingelikuwa ni mitumba camera. ilishatumika ikaoza ikarudishwa jikoni kama kawaida ikauziwa wakenya. Subiria when the shit hits the ceilling wakati mtagundua mlishapigwa. Saa hii hamtaji bei lakini mtaanza kutaja mabilion ya ajabu na hapo ndio tutaanza kusikia ule wimbo wa taifa wa ruto aaaah ruto oooh!

Ata hivyo hongereni nchi ua kwanza kununua used trains duniani kote. Nahisi zitakuwa zimetolewa bure ili uchafu uwaondokee wahispania lakini mnadai mmeyanunua. Hebu vukeni hapo Ethiopia mkajionee mambo ya treni ili mpate dokezo kinacho andaliwa hapa tz.
