Bw. @Da Vinci, is this project secret, and how did you obtain these classified images?:D:D:D:D

:D:D:D:D

those blue trains though!!

I love how the Chinese complete their work to the last detail, landscaping , grass.
Doubt local contractors will go to this extent.
Note, it is not meant to be a big deal but since our experience has shown us otherwise , it feels like a big deal to see a complete project .

#JustAsking, is the contractor of Ngong Road Phase 1 the same contractor at Nakumatt Junction, probably Phase 2?

Reason for asking is that, the contractor didn’t even bother clearing trees first. What’s going on?

Hard seat coach? Sigwes

tho passenger trains are OK…df11G locomotives

Must they write in Chinese?

and the tunnel, i hope they make it a dual track. c ati ikue tundu la sindano

Why not? The Brits wrote in English.

it is a big deal to see a complete project…tumetoka mbali…

Now I see why Delamere had to sell his land to whom he sold it to.

are they using a TBM ama ni blasting for the tunnel construction @spear ?

hakuna TBM, ni mdogo mdogo boring and blasting till the end

thats rathet dissapointing, it could have been a marvel to watch a TBM in action.

yeah TBM would have just taken the project to a whole new level

That’s goood. news. we March on.

We are using the TBM, its right there at the back in blue. Sorry its a busy weekend and its starting today on a Thursday.

it doesn’t look anything like a TBM, unless there’s a new design.
