The Nigeria Railway Corporation, NRC, has concluded plans to kickstart night operations before the second quarter of 2024.

The Managing Director of NRC, Fidet Okhiria, disclosed this during a recent interview with NAN.

However, he said insecurity is the major hindrance to the commencement of night operations.

He stated that, “what is limiting us is the night operations, and that is not the way trains should operate. The train is meant to operate at all times. People may like to travel in the evening, but because of the security situation in the country, we limit ourselves to the daytime.

“We intend to bring back passenger and freight trains from Port-Harcourt to Aba, Lagos to Kano, and Kaduna because of the dry ports.

“We are going to increase the number of train trips to six on Lagos-Ibadan, Warri-Itakpe, and Abuja-Kaduna, which means the trips will be three times to and three times from, making six trips in a day.”

“The trips will commence before the second quarter of 2024 Right now, they are running four trips—two up and two down across the board”, Okhiria said

Sounds good

Welcome development


But we need a young guy with the present tech knowledge to run this thing, just simple bring in the people handling the Lagos blue line rail.

Let them teach this old man his job.

2024 NRC still selling tickets, instead of online booking.

Common sporty bet website is more advanced than a websites of a national railway cooperation.

Don't try it please. Security is not guaranteed

I hope bandits are not aware?

The blood of Malachi don finish because of the fear of insecurity for day trips now Na night trip una want to start abi na appointments una wan set up with bandits and terrorists?

Bandits are watching with keen interest.

Ticket is now sold online. NRC workers are the ones sabotaging the effort of the government.

Run ooooo.

If #4000 not too small drop ur aza or via my 9032656366

South west to South east/south south rail way is the most viable in the country, I don't know how Buhari will be building rail to North/Niger when we all know they have low purchasing power to make the project viable/profitable

Hmm

What about underground trains? When will Nigeria start running underground trains?

The should do
Lagos to Calabar
It will be more okay

Good news.

However, Aba to PH is just like a neighborhood while Lago to Kano is as long as transnational railway.

SS-SE-NE corridor should get genuine attention NOT propaganda.

This is a welcomed development

Great news.

China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC) says it has completed the laying of tracks on the Port Harcourt to Aba section of the eastern narrow gauge railway.

In a post published on X, John Zhao, an official of CCECC, announced the completion of the Port Harcourt to Aba rail line.

“New year, new progress! The track laying from Port Harcourt to Aba on the Nigeria Eastern Narrow-Gauge Railway project has been completed by #CCECC,” Zhao wrote.

Nigercity:
