Passenger Train to cross the Nile again
Greetings good people.
We have been cooking on all fronts to extend our services wide and far.
Preparations for the train to Jinja are in the final phase. We have heard the calls, and as listening sector players, it is incumbent upon us to respond to the calls.
This trip will start as a weekend service. We shall depart Kampala on Fridays and return on Sundays. We are not talking years to come. This is happening this year 2026.
After the acquisition of more rolling stock (a process that is ongoing), the trips to and from Jinja will increase. The target is to have a daily scheduled train crossing the Nile.
Next up,
1. Preperations for AfCON
2. Clearance of ALL ENCROACHMENT on URC land. We heard the calls, it is time to clear the reserve completly.
