What days are the journey from Kaduna to Lagos? is it still in operation


Heard the flood disrupted the Jebba-Mokwa tracks.. I'll have to confirm from Lagos. But I don't think the train is functional now. Only the Kaduna-Abuja own is in operation...

surely they could just operate the Lagos to Ilorin route until the bridge is rebuilt.

Seems like they are cutting cost to me

Please, I'd like to know if it's still operational.. When does the train travel from ibadan to lagos?

It takes 11 hours for train to travel through Niger State alone, i.e from Jebba to Sarkinpowa.

N:B I added the 45 minutes it would stay in Minna.. Train should be in Sarkinpowa by now, will arrive Kaduna by 8:10, spend another 20 minutes at the Kaduna train station and then continue unto Zaria, Challawa then terminate at Kano around 11:30 pm - 12:00 am.

Total travel time from Lagos to Kano: 34 hours, 30 minutes instead of the 28 hours Estimated Time of Arrival.

NRC still needs to work on schedule and more coaches would be expedient for travellers as the festive season approaches.

Do you know if it's still operational.. I need to travel from ibadan to lagos tru rail.. Please which day of the week does the train leave for lagos

It is still operational. Sorry for replying late. There are no fixed schedules. But target Tuesday, the Ilorin-Lagos route.. Nevertheless, the journey would be worthless except you have cargo. Ibadan to Lagos is nearly 5 hours by train due to stops and potential mechanical faults which is bound to happen 97% of the time.

Yh, thank you very much.. Wouldn't dream of travelling to lagos from ibadan by rail if not for the heavy stuff i intend to move at some point
