Djibouti first african nation with transnational electrified railway
I think there may be some misinformation here!
While Djibouti is a country with a growing economy and infrastructure, it is not the first African nation with a transnational electrified railway.
In fact, several African countries have transnational electrified railways, including:
- South Africa and Namibia: The Trans-Kalahari Railway connects the two countries, with a total length of approximately 1,300 km (800 miles).
- Egypt and Sudan: The Aswan Dam Railway connects the two countries, with a total length of approximately 1,400 km (870 miles).
- Morocco and Spain: The Mediterranean Corridor connects the two countries, with a total length of approximately 1,200 km (750 miles).
- Kenya and Uganda: The Uganda Railway connects the two countries, with a total length of approximately 1,000 km (620 miles).
Djibouti does have a railway network, but it is not transnational and not electrified. The country's railway network is relatively short, with a total length of approximately 100 km (62 miles), and is primarily used for freight transportation.
It's possible that you may be thinking of a specific project or proposal for a transnational electrified railway in Djibouti, but I couldn't find any information to support the claim that Djibouti is the first African nation with a transnational electrified railway.
