Cost comparison SGR Kenya vs SGR Tanzania

After all these comparisons without a deep down data and facts to support the so called SGR Kenya and SRG Tz what exactly is the essence of this. The issue here is that can fellow African Brothers and sisters be very carefully on engaging their countries in deadly contracts which in turn will make the whole country suffers, the Chinese are just hooligans and they are just interested in whatever opportunity they will explore be it in 100 years or so. and they are taking advantage of our corrupt leaders.Be careful no any white cripple who will make Africa develop instead struggle hard by yourself period

Hiyo ndo the exact same model inayotumika Kenya, kwa hio video anatumia metro train ya stima, bullet train na pia hiyo DF11G ya diesel! Kwahivyo licha ya China kua na fastest trains in the world na pia kua na the longest electric railway network in the world, bado Diesel Trains zinatumika!

Government to phase out diesel trains by 2040​

The Government has made a pledge to remove all diesel-only trains form UK railways by 2040.

An estimated 29% of Britain’s current train fleet is run solely on diesel fuel

Total electrification of the railways was played down by Rail Minister Jo Johnson, who encouraged the use of bi-mode trains, which can switch from electric to diesel mid-journey.

The industry is also developing alternative fuel trains, using battery and hydrogen power.

“I would like to see us take all diesel-only trains off the track by 2040,” Johnson said. “If that seems like an ambitious goal – it should be and I make no apology for that.”

Transport overtook the power industry as the UK’s most emitting sector in 2016. The Government has sought to address the worsening situation, announcing proposals to ban all new petrol and diesel vehicles from 2040.

But efforts will also need to be taken in the rail sector. An estimated 29% of Britain’s current train fleet is run solely on diesel fuel, and the carbon footprint of rail has grown by one-third since 1999.

The Government was accused of “betraying” rail passengers last summer after scrapping plans to electrify three rail lines on the Midland Main Line, Great Western Main Line and in the Lake District.

Transport Secretary Chris Grayling said at the time that the Government would instead introduce bi-mode trains with more seats and better on-board facilities.

Alternative options

Johnson said yesterday that he would like to see hydrogen train trials on the UK railway “as soon as possible”.

“Hydrogen offers an affordable – and potentially much cleaner – alternative to diesel,” he said. “And the technology has developed fast in recent years.”

Northern is exploring the possibility of deploying alternative-fuel trains, such as battery or hydrogen-powered units, on the route by 2021.

The UK could take note from the growing number of low-carbon rail developments taking place abroad. A batch of zero-emission trains that combine regenerative electrification technology with renewable diesel have been scheduled for commercialisation for 2025, after a pan-European passenger transport firm signed a €170m contract to manufacture the vehicles in the Netherlands.

Late last year, the CRRC Corporation unveiled a 100% electric, self-driving train that journeys on virtual tracks. Operating in select streets of Zhuzhou in the Chinese Province of Hunan, the Autonomous Rail Rapid Transit can transport up to 300 passengers, reaching speeds of around 43mph.

Elsewhere, Indian Railways launched its first train fitted with rooftop solar panels. Operating across Delhi, the trains will have fans, lighting and display systems powered by renewables in a move that could save more than 5,500 gallons of diesel annually.

if they r there then less than 10% in operation!

Fast trains are damn expensive, thats y slown trains are still in business, tickets for fast trains cost as much as a flight ticket
 
Achana na huyo mwendawazamu ambae ako radhi avue nguo abaki uchi ili tu ashinde mjadala, next atakwambia dunia si duara manake yeye mwenyewe kama mtu binafsi hajawahi safiri hadi nje ya dunia na kuitazama kutoka huko nje! Ama atakwambia Tanzania ndo nchi pekee dunia nzima manake hajawahi safiri hizo nchi zengine na kuziona au kuhesabu na macho yake!
we mzee wa ndege 34,,,,,,tatizo una pang'ang'a na porojo unazoziokoteza kwenye vilink visivyo na tija na mwisho wa siku huna point unakosa real evidence....
yaani unajikuta unajua kila kitu hadi masuala ya kiusalama,,,,,,haujioni kuwa wewe ni kichaa mwenye asili ya ushog.....
kuna vitu kuwa kimya si ujinga stick kwenye unachojua siyo unajiropokea baba yako mwenyewe humjui vyema unakuja kuzungumzia taifa ambalo hata ulijui we si kunguni....

kuna vitu ambavyo vinaweza kueleweka kama masuala ya uchumi,majengo mfano hospital n.k ila usiropoke kuhusu masuala ya kijeshi utapigwa middl fing kwa bata,,,, umezingua,,,,

Tazara cargo volumes rise despite COVID-19

  • Tazara cargo volumes rise despite COVID-19

Lusaka – The Tanzania Zambia Railway Authority (Tazara) defied COVID-19-induced restrictions on economic activity to register four percent growth in freight volumes, though passenger traffic declined by nine percent in the financial year ending June 2020.

Tazara says it moved 182,302 tonnes in the period under review, compared to 175,597 tonnes a year earlier. Factoring in the 196,676 tonnes moved by Calabash Freight Ltd through an open access operational arrangement, Tazara’s total line capacity utilisation was up 4,5 percent on 2018-20119.

In addition to COVID-19, the bi-national logistics concern also had to contend with inadequate and inefficient rolling stock, and a landslide and wash-away that affected sections of the line.

While freight volumes firmed, passenger figures fell by nine percent from 3,046,002 people transported in 2018-2019 to 2,778,708 in 2019-2020. This was likely due to travel restrictions related to COVID-19 from March 2020.

The company is targeting to move at least 400,000 tonnes of cargo and 3,4 million passengers in the year ending June 2021. The Tazara board has also approved purchase of seven diesel-electric locomotives to boost the current fleet of eight mainline engines in the current financial year.

However, that acquisition as well as other proposed capital outlays amounting to US$558 million await shareholder approval, which translates to securing the permission of the Tazara Council of Ministers.

The expenditure of over half a billion dollars is at the core of Tazara’s proposed Revitalisation Bankable Business Plan, a short to medium-term strategy to grow the enterprise that is owned by the governments of Tanzania and Zambia.

The target is to achieve full operational profitability and self-sustenance by the end of the 2021-2022 financial year.
