Uganda is preparing to acquire 10 diesel-electric trains to enhance its railway infrastructure and improve transportation capacity. The addition of these trains aims to boost both passenger and freight services, supporting the country’s growing economy and facilitating trade. The initiative is part of Uganda’s broader efforts to modernize its transportation systems and provide more efficient travel options for its citizens and businesses.
The new trains are expected to offer better fuel efficiency and lower operational costs compared to traditional diesel locomotives. This acquisition underscores Uganda’s commitment to developing its rail network and promoting sustainable transportation solutions. Further details regarding the timeline and investment for this project are likely to be announced as plans progress.
