Tanzania has started to test its first, maiden, Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) electric train along the Dar-es-salaam and Morogoro section.

The Tanzania SGR train hit a speed of 160Km/h compared to Kenya that uses diesel and can move up to 120Km/h.

It is being expected that, once commissioned for service, the new SGR train should be able to travel at the velocity of 160 kilometers per hour, which is essentially twice the speed of an ordinary bus.
