Kenya Railways has ordered 56 trains to operate on the standard gauge railway (SGR) ahead of the June 2017 completion of the Mombasa-Nairobi section. Among the orders are eight shunting, five passenger and 43 cargo locomotives. A shunting locomotive is used in a train yard to move wagons around and assemble a train before a mainline locomotive takes over. The rail firm has also ordered 1,620 freight wagons – a mixture of both boxed and flat. The trains will be delivered between December and March 2017. The order adds to the list of Chinese companies that have benefited from the SGR project with the contractor building the rail also expected to bag the contract for running the line. The cost of procuring the trains is part of the Sh327 billion contract issued to the project’s contractor, China Road and Bridge Corporation (CRBC). Garimoshi hizi zitapakwa rangi ya nyekundu, manjano na nyeupe kulingana na mapendekezo ya Kenya Railways.
