| Mombasa-Nairobi Standard Gauge Railway Project Construction by Antony Trivet Travels Blogs. Kenya's Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) is a partially completed railway system connecting the country's cities. Once completed, it will link the country to the neighboring country of Uganda, and through Uganda, to South Sudan, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Rwanda, and Burundi. There are also plans to link to Addis Ababa, in neighboring Ethiopia, to the north. The first segment, between Mombasa and Nairobi, opened passenger rail service in June 2017 and freight rail service in January 2018. Other segments are currently under construction or in the planning stage. The new standard-gauge railway is intended to replace the old, inefficient metre-gauge railway system |
