John Cashin build monorail systems.Oh yes heavy gauge freight are essential to industrial growth.We hope to be able to invest and build a Pan African Rail Corp and Trans Africa railways
how much would building a Pan African Rail Corp cost?
The rail Corp was planned back in the 70’s but political instability and graft killed it.I had plans for the Trans Africa railways back in 1996 but African governments were not interested.To answer your question billions African can monetize its natural resources and process them into semi finished minerals to leverage it
yea, thats what I thought, start by investing into the natural resources and and then take it from there..
What about freight trains? I love trains. its a cheap way of transporting goods around the contient
