Tanzania power project sets the stage for SGR operations

Tanzania power project sets the stage for SGR operations
Tanzania State power utility firm is will supply 70 megawatts of electricity to power the first phase of the standard gauge railway (SGR), which starts operations in the coming few months...
Looks as if Tanzania's SGR will be electrified. It was an incredible mistake for Kenya to build its SGR without electrification, although it has become clear that the project was never properly planned nor implemented, but was just a prestige project for certain interests.
