Test Run Result:
Departure from Nairobi South Terminal @9:30am
Arrival at Mtito Andei Station @11:30am.
Mtito Andei Intermediate station is the midpoint of the 472 kilometre SGR line.
The train took 2hrs to travel a distance of 236KM give or take.
Quick calculations gives an average speed of 118km/hr. Na mlisema train ni an archeological specimen.
NASANISTS would prefer we arrived in mombasa at the speed of light though…:D:D:D:D
[SIZE=5]Critics were working with the initial speed given by the government that was higher than that. Plus the jubilee manifesto had bullet trains. 118km/hr is not bad but is definitely not world class.Notice that the train on the manifesto is electric.[/SIZE] http://nairobiwire.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/jub1.jpg
