So hii inaweza kutufanya tuelecrify TAZARA na kuchomelea viungio, ingawa swala la speed litategemea na kona swala alilofeli muingereza

Hata bila ya ku-electrify TAZARA huyu 👇 anaweza tumika akiwa na "gauge changing bogies"!

Vectron Dual Mode locomotive will be introduced in 2020​

Published on 18-11-2019 at 17:23
In eight months after assembling a prototype of Vectron Dual Mode locomotive, the first customer purchased the new vehicles. German company Railsystems RP ordered two units of this type. Both locomotives will be delivered and entered service by the end of 2020.

The Vectron Dual Mode locomotive is a unique type of rolling stock. It can be powered by diesel engine and electricity from overhead wires. The new vehicle allows the operators to be more flexible by reducing their fuel costs on the electrified routes and maintenance costs on the non-electrified lines. According to CEO of Siemens Mobility Sabrina Soussan, this ‘locomotive combines the best of two worlds’. In spite of energy source (diesel fuel or electricity), the vehicle has a traction power of 2,000 kilowatts and a starting tractive effort of 300 kilonewtons. The locomotive is able to speed up to 160 kilometres per hour.

Stadler’s competitor​

The Siemens-made dual-mode locomotive has a stronger competitor produced by Stadler Rail – the EURODUAL locomotives. They are more powerful than Vectron Dual Mode units and have a traction power of 2,800 kilowatts in diesel mode and 6,150 kilowatts by using the overhead electric wires.

This type is running in regular service for more than five years. Currently, the EURODUAL locomotives are used by the railway companies in the United Kingdom (Direct Rail Services), South Africa (PRASA) and Germany (Havelländische Eisenbahnen). This list was extended by the Turkish rail freight operator Körfez Ulaştırma. The latter ordered seven dual-mode locomotives of this type.

“They have lockdown, we don’t have lockdown, they are not working, we are working, they are not recovering, we are recovering,” says Itembe from Azania Bank. “This is the big difference between Tanzania and the rest of the world and East Africa.”

International airport lazma iwe na uwanja wenye runway ya urefu zaidi ya 2500 m! Hapo Dar, Dodoma (after current extension not sure though if altitude will qualify the runway), Kilimanjaro, Mwanza, Songwe, Mtwara (after current extension), Msalato (from design specifications) na Zanzibar! Hivyo vingine si international according to IATA n ICAO standards! Mfugale kaelezea hivi vingine vitakuwa na urefu gani!


Ila nimemsikia Dotto akisema hivyo viwanja vyote vitaruhusu dreamliner kutua
 
[emoji2369] aisee nina uhakika matumizi ya Uwanja wa Bukoba hata nusu ya capacity yake hayajafika! Ngoja nicheki nondo!

Uwanja una capacity ya 500,000 PAX per annum na nina amini haujafika abiria 150,000 kwa mwaka mpaka sasa kwa mwaka! Actually so far less than 40,000 PAX per year!
Na Nshomile wanavyosahau kwao would have been a big time wastage of funds! ungeota uyoga na buibui!
Hapana aisee.

Baada ya mwanza airport Bukoba airport ndo inafuata Kwa abiria wengi wa ndani.
