Kenya Railways resumes Nyahururu line after 46 years

The Kenya Railways Corporation has resumed passenger and freight rail services to Nyahururu in Laikipia County, 46 years after operations were suspended. The corporation dismissed claims that the move is politically motivated and linked to the upcoming Ol Kalou by-election, saying the objective is to enhance affordable public transport and the movement of agricultural goods, especially amid rising road transport costs due to high fuel prices
