- Africa's INSANE Plan To Connect The Entire Continent By High Speed Rail
Afrail Express, a high-speed railway endeavor is set to transform transportation throughout the African continent. For years, Africa's vastness has served as both a blessing and a curse. While it boasts abundant resources and a mosaic of cultures, its disjointed infrastructure has impeded economic development and regional cohesion. Presently, the majority of rail transportation in Africa relies on colonial-era tracks, offering sluggish speeds and limited connectivity. This is precisely where the Afrail Express steps in, promising a significant leap forward. Join us today as we explore the new megaproject that will reshape the African continent.

Who woulda thunk the Africans would get a high-speed railway before the Americans.
Doubters will weigh in on this idea. Who thought that China would build the largest high speed rail net 40 or 50 years ago. Why not Africa. Africa may have HSR before the United States.
Building high speed rails in Africa will be more affordable because there are not many mountains there
No "may" about it. They will, while the US squanders taxpayers money on war.
BRAVO!! Finally to help Africa industrialize by China!!
By AFRIKANS with the help of everybody else just like America, EUROPE etc they all need other people to help develop, no one is an ISLAND!!!
If this happens, then African is FREE FOR GOOD! Each African country can and will interchange benefits from each countries. Wether it is agricultural, minerals, trade, or other
natural resources. A Bright idea forth coming!
Westerns will jealous and said can't 😂 keep go Africa 🎉
Very interesting
Very encouraging.
utopia.... and how it can keep animals safe?? and how it can be saved from tresparrasing animals? And how close and friendly really are African countries, nations and tribes :)
It needs to be fenced off, to prevent the accidental approach of four- and two-legged animals.
I think this will be a fantastic opportunity for helping all of the African Nations that this speed rail will pass through!! It is a bold project which I hope to see completed, and will also show the Australian government why it should be done Down Under as well...
Hope it's true dat would be great cuz we really need free movement of Afrikans in Afrika ✌🏿
Nice 3d animation . Let's see how the reality will look and how long will it take to build.
Good Luck with that I'd hate vandals and crime gangs attacking the railway.
YEA, vandals and crime gangs huh? so that's what there in Africa--if u have nothing better to write about, just leave it blank
Jealousy is the worst trait!
@@randyeduo You don't know Africa.
Am challenged.
Africa is going places
Tripoli sure looks exactly like Nashville...
If I recall Cecil Road wanted to do the same thing in South Africa, I think
👍 woooow
Nothing about this is serious. It's just an idea of someone on their website. The route map on there is just a screenshot of the Google maps route planner for cars. Even though this could be possible in theory, no political intentions have been made about this. Almost all projects are on a national level. If the cooperation of the African Union increases in the next decades, this might become relevant again though.
ita a future plan, in case u aren't paying attention. it is possible and with the new gold-back quantum financial system soon to kick in, all nations will be given trillions to build their economies--at least, even white insiders are admitting that the continent will become the wealthiest in this new financial system
Keep your negativity in your house please!

Maglev in Africa? Where are they going to find that much electricity available at 100% reliability? Also, given the rural populations of people and mega fauna shouldn’t such a system be 100% elevated above grade?
From hydro power. There are many dams already which are not used to their full potential. There is potential for building more dams across various rivers. Many solar power plants are also in the planning or implementation stages. Some countries in southern African don't experience regular power shortages already.
Rural populations are not a major concern. There are not hundreds of such deaths from current railway lines which already pass though rural areas. The only issue here would be wild animals, and how to cater for them to reduce accidents, especially big animals like elephants and buffalo.
THE CONGO RIVER MEGA DAM PROJECT, silly!
@@mandandi The Florida Atlantic-seaboard train line had only a few grade-level crossing accidents before high-speed service started-and many more since. Speed matters, especially in a state that is heavily populated with older retirees who have slower reaction times.
@@section8ight174 For a system that loops around the whole of Africa? I doubt it.
@@DeanStephen Of course. Yet, the railway line and services have not been dismantled due to the increased accidents, have they? Solutions are found and implemented where possible. The same will apply to this railway line across Africa. Some of the newer bridges connecting some countries already have a provision for a railway line to be constructed in the future. Airports have been built in places with lots of wild animals, though they are fenced. The point is that, wild animals do not stop some developments.
won't ever happen .it is just a dream
People like are the ones that will make it not happen
Africa ❤❤ ethioia
Africa need Djibouti to Gambia a cross railway east west.
maglev and HSR are two different technology, plus maglev is too expensive even for developed countries, it's absurd for any african country to take the burden of the cost, it's impossible to have over 8000 km of maglev with only 80 bln dollars budget
oh ye of little faith, becuz u can't digest it happening, that does not make it impossible
Negative Nancy! With the way technology is progressing in leaps & bounds, wouldn’t surprise me that this feat is truly possible! NOTHING is impossible it’s always your lack of imagination that restricts you!!
@@randyeduo bruh my country just finished 142 km of HSR and it cost 8 bln dollars, double that to 10 and you only get 1420 km, now make that maglev and you'll get even shorter distance, maybe just 100-200 km of maglev, and you want 8000 km for the same price?how your faith can make something even developed countries refuse to develop become 100 times cheaper? Are you familiar with the concept of realistic?
@@section8ight174 your imagination makes you blind, sure based on "imagination" everything is possible, but don't be so sure your imagination become reality before other more realistic technological leaps such as fusion powerplant and Mars colony become reality first, it's not you who develop the technology so you have no idea how hard it is to develop maglev trains with low price, for now it's beyond realistic!
Think first before you speak smh
But what you say ?!!
Does this mean we get to go through the Civil War that are taking place?
I love the lack of common sense and understanding by some people in this comment section, talking about it’s too expensive for any African country , there are 54 countries in Africa , the logic is very simple if you want your country to progress and be part of it , you will drop the money.
But what do you lot know 🤣🤣🤣
Africa is one single country in your heads ,yh ?
Even if the cost is too much … the train doesn’t have to be completed in one year atleast china has done more in 10 years that the west has done in almost 200 years 😭😭😭

Yeah, Zimbabwe learned that lesson with the Kazungula bridge construction. Originally, Bots, Zim and Zam were to be part of the project. Zim pulled out. The project went ahead, by-passing the Zim border by a few metres! Now Zim wants in - too late.
lool crypto add
Maybe next century
More like next millenia
Never going to happen never
The same way you douted China 🇨🇳 now doubting Africa 🌍 its Privately owned watch out😂
@@Davisjunga California has very special land titles they’re called Allodial land titles.
Just another BS
