THIS THREAD SYMBOLIZES WHY THIS COUNTRY HAS PROBLEMS. THE PEOPLE'S MINDSET IS PROGRAMMED TO FAILURE. THEY VIRTUALLY USE THEIR OWN MINDS TO CREATE FAILURE.

AS WITHIN, SO WITHOUT. IF ALL YOU SEE IS FAILURE, ALL YOU WILL GET IS FAILURE. THE UNIVERSE WORKS LIKE A MIRROR. IT GIVES YOU BACK WHAT YOU GENERATE FROM YOUR OWN SELF. NIGERIANS NEED TO LEARN THAT LESSON.

THIS IS THE SAME COUNTRY THAT HAD NO FUNCTIONAL RAILWAY SYSTEM JUST 3 YEARS AGO.

TODAY, WITH THE SYSTEM BEING RESUSCITATED AFTER 30 YEARS, THEY ARE ASKING WHERE IS THE BULLET TRAIN?

I MEAN, I'M JUST LOST FOR WORDS FOR THE LEVEL OF UNINTELLIGENCE DISPLAYED BY OUR SO CALLED 'YOUTH', MANY OF THEM OLD ENOUGH TO KNOW BETTER. PITY.

guy the resuscitation of the railway system actually began under gej. this admin has not even started building any new rail tracks, what sort of resuscitation is dat?

A batch of trains rolled off the production line of China Railway Rolling Stock Corporation (CRRC) Nanjing Puzhen Co., Ltd., on Sept. 12, and will be shipped to the Port of Lagos in Nigeria a month later, according to reports.

These 10 standard-gauge trains were ordered by Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC) in May this year. They have adopted Chinese standards, and will be the fastest trains running in Africa, with a design speed of 160 km/h. Operation speed could be as high as 150 km/h.

Lagos Senator, Senator Gbenga Ashafa was among the Ministerial Delegation that inspected some of the rail coaches expected in Nigeria by the N R C (next quarter), in Nanjing, China on September 12.

Gbenga Ashafa, chairman of the Nigerian Senate Committee on Land Transport, believes that the Chinese trains will definitely improve the railway development of the country. He said Nigeria is a fertile land open to foreign direct investments with a high return rate.

According to the CRRC Nanjing Puzhen, it is the second order placed by the NRC. The first of five trains was ordered in 2015 and delivered in 2016.

CRRC Nanjing Puzhen has finished 10 orders for six African countries so far, including Nigeria, Sudan, Cameron, and Kenya.

Funny how some people say " ... what the Chinese themselves will never put on there [sic] own rail line". For your information my friend, there are many old trains in China similarly to the new ones currently being used in Nigeria.

160 km/h its a very good speed for a train in africa ( most african countries are limited to 120km/h)


but there is the design speed and operational speed, not the same depending on the Rail quality , electrification ect..

, south africa have gautrain 160 km/h , Algeria have many trains line with 160 km/h operational speed and a line with 220 km/h will be in service in few months , and a moroccan high speed train will start service in the end of this year with 320 km/h
