NIGERIA-TRANSPORT-INFRASTRUCTURE-FEATURE

A sixteen-coach train is driven from Lagos to Kano February 8, 2013. The rejuvenated Nigerian Railway Corporation has resumed passenger and haulage services on the Lagos-Kano route following the refurbishing of engines and coaches over 20 years the corporation had gone bankrupt. Earlier last year, the corporation had acquired 20 pressurised tank wagons in preparation for the haulage of petroleum products from Lagos to northern parts of the country. The 20 wagons have the capacity to lift 900,000 litres of petroleum products, the equivalent of 27 road tankers.
