adewasco2k:You don't get what? He is telling you that if GEJ hasn't resurrected the Nigerian railway system, would you be comparing Nigeria with India that have always maintained there railway system since the colonial period.

kenex4ever:How many Nigerians understand this? Of course, they'll compare us with other oil producing nations. Most never understand is the engineering and science sectors of a country that makes them rich. Poster, honestly answer me this.... If past administrations have consistently taken our railways serious, will this present administration be providing us with this? Also, have you factored in the cost of getting bullet and electric trains not to even talk about MAGLEVS? If yes, do you think Nigeria can afford some of these trains? Correct me if I'm wrong but the trains provided by this administration will be used for inter state transportation as obtainable in other countries unlike the electric and bullet trains which is for intra state transportation. Then again, aren't most trains being uploaded here owned by the private investors in the various countries? Someone enlighten me please... Thanks 5 Likes |

Re: PHOTOS: Comparison Of GEJ New Trains With Trains From Other Countries by LRNZH(m): 12:43pm On Dec 28, 2014 |
Feraz: Let me educate you. The Eurostar trains are controlled electronically with intelligent network grids. They don't depend much on the view of the train driver as they're electric. The Nigerian and Ghanaian trains (unlike South African and Moroccan trains) are manually controlled with the driver pushing all the levers and looking at his front for obstacles or condition s of the track. All he does with the station is to communicate the train location and status to by radio. The train drivers line of sight and area of view is a safety concern in this case. You're welcome. |

We can't possibly use electric trains. We don't have enough electricity to run homes,businesses and industry and we are talking about rail? How will you feel if there is a power failure in the middle of nowhere in an electric train. Also, most countries with large land mass use diesel trains not electric. Borno,Yobe and Adamawa combined is larger than England.To lay up 1500Km of electric rail (e.g Lagos to maiduguri)will be too damn expensive,and the average Nigerian can't pay for it. This will lead to the collapse of the system.The electric rail system is meant for small countries with large GDP per capita or large countries with huge trade surplus,we are neither. United Kingdom Phase 1 of High Speed 2 $173 million per km California High speed rail $56 million/km China High speed rail $17–21 million per km Europe High speed rail $25–39 million per km http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_High-Speed_Rail At $20 million per km. Lagos to maiduguri would be $20 million x 1500 km =$30 Billion. We have not even begun to talk about maintenance,who will pay for that ? and what about other routes? Let us first get the capacity and capability of moving people and goods efficiently, quickly and safely. Deal with the elephant in the room (Electricity and industry) before going towards luxuries that are at the reach of low pop high GDP nations. The DMU (Diesel Trains) is the correct thing to buy for the vast majority of Nigerians who seek the opportunities rail provides. 2 Likes |

akereconfi: But come o... No be yab abeg. Do you wash train toilets in Manchester? You look like a guy that was begging me for tips at the Mancunian train station when I visited recently. He was cleaning the station. I'm linking that info to this early morning picture you took (captured below). You look like you had not slept overnight or even washed your face. Like I said no be yab. I just dey ask. It is better to come back home and be reasonably employed by TAN or Railways. Just trying to help.

dragon2: I get your point. But if you notice, the US focuses more on highways and car transport. Their road transport development has no rival in the world. They use trains more for cargo freight. If I remember well, only NY has an advanced intra city rail network. |
