The 280-mile (450 kilometres) railway will slash journey time between Mecca, the spiritual heart of Islam, and Medina, its second most sacred site from about 5hrs to 2hrs.

A fleet of thirty-five 417-seater electric trains ,capable of travelling at speeds of 300km per hour, will transport Muslim pilgrims as well as regular travellers between the two holy cities via the Red Sea port of Jeddah in two hours.

Hajj and umrah ( the big and lesser pilgrimage respectively ) generate billions of dollars in revenues from worshippers fees, lodging, transport, gifts and food.

Beautiful.

The project cost ooo, about 1/3 of our national budget of 2018

Our useless politicians who visit these places won't see these innovations to bring back to d country... Dey go there come back and ask us to pray.. We kip making noise of overtaking some countries and breaking into an imaginary list of nations and I ask, are those Nations going to slow down for us to meet dem or how exactly... Others are in 22nd century while we are so 200late(2 thousand and late)

I hope when our politicians see this, they will be motivated even though nothing motivates them than looting.

hmmmm, Saudi be balling ..... This kinda train should be hustling Abuja-Lagos-Portharcout everyday ....
Imagine , 35 trains with 417passengers ......

and Bokhari

With the declining state of Nigeria, being a sceptic would not be faulted. Nigeria is sleeping - a deep state hibernation.

Looks amazing. By the photos you will think you are in Japan.
