East African Railway Master Plan
Kenya’s new standard gauge railway lies at the core of the master plan. The line is envisioned to extend to Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, the DRC, Tanzania and South Sudan... There is talk of a rail connection to Kisangani in the DRC, from where the Congo River is navigable to the capital. A railway to Matadi on the Atlantic coast enables traffic to bypass the rapids west of Kinshasha.
