A batch of trains rolled off the production line of China Railway Rolling Stock Corporation (CRRC) on Sept. 12, will be shipped to the Port of Lagos in Nigeria in a month's time, according to reports.
These 10 standard-gauge trains were ordered by Nigerian Railway Corporation in May this year. They have adopted Chinese standards, and will be the fastest trains running in Africa, with a design speed of 160 km/h. Operation speed could be as high as 150 km/h. More pics...
