Oh, the train. Nothing's going ever to surpass it. All the folklore around it, life, expansion, commerce, freedom! People involved in railroading have all the same love for their works all around the world. Great production, thank you!

African countries are the most richest country in natural resources in the world but because of politics it's hard to develope because of greedy leaders . You can find almost all of the natural resources in the world in African countries.
So well done - I watched it to the very end - no breaks; I just could not stop. Better than US Cable TV - more captivating, the narration is more engaging, and seeing real people living real lives. I must say. Thank you so much!
I travelled from dar es salaam to Lusaka 8 years ago , it was nothing but a pleasure . Being the only white person on the train I had nothing but fun. I wish african people were treated the same way in Europe. Respect for all those I met along the way !!!

Very good documentary, please keep it good lady. I started using Tazara when going to school from copperbelt to Mpika boys secondary school. It's a very good infrastructure success project.
Wonderfully put together. Excellent script and narration. Superb camera work. Tasteful and well balanced background music. Thank you so much for this thoroughly enjoyable film. . Much appreciated.
I had the pleasure of traveling on this line 3 years ago. Unfortunately, I didn't see any animals, as I traversed the park at night. I expected to arrive up to a day late, but to my surprise, we were only 2 hours late after two days travel. This was better than my experience traveling cross-country on Amtrak.
@ Rod Batts Thank Rod. At least an eye witness who can show that this documentary has a biased approach. I have travelled by train in many countries. It is an experience. One time i travelled by train from Bulawayo in Zimbabwe to Victoria Falls. That trip was memorable as we had Journalists literally chasing the train and reporting about its "lateness". They would drive and go and wait for the train at the next point where the train crosses the road and will be taking photos and video clips. Rail travel is never 100% on time anywhere. I have been on trains where the train stops in the middle of nowhere because they are unable to communicate via the signals to ses if the line is free and we would wait on a siding for ages until we had a clearance. That is part of the fun of rail travel.
Brilliant documentary the Africans are such lovely people, I so admired that farmer she had such clear vision of what she was aiming for. We don't realise how lucky we are in the west.
@@medicineshroom1386 Because I was adopted from a young age. I come from an orphanage, so I have been fortunate enough to live my life here in the Netherlands, but still have a strong connection with Zambia and Africa and have been there a few times. 🙂
If the Tanzanian Railway Bureau can maintain and operate the railway well, as well as make good use of the Tanzanian Railway, the economy of Tanzania and Zambia will be better
Tanzania is most poorest Country in the world then boooom! on the train Tanzanians are enjoying beers and good foods, in their rural area they got electricity supply, water supply, all people look clean, healthy and smile, farm largely, live in bricks houses and iron roofed, no hunger, no lack of medical care, their environment is well kept with lots of trees and lush green, you people must have an agenda
Whilst the railway has many problems, it can be changed around. And better still, its so comforting to see that wilderness Africa still exists. Most dangerous journeys and now Railway tracks, opens our eyes to development opportunities, especially in Africa

9,838 km air travel distance from our country Philippines to Tanzania is an amazing work you guys from Free Documentary, we have now watched the situation of people in that country (Africa) and we offer prayer for your safety and abundance living. God bless you always!
In August 2022, I travelled with the Tazara from Dar es Salaam to Mbeya on my way to Zambia and the Zimbabwe side of Victora Falls. Due to rail repairs on the Zambian side of the railway line, the last stop was Mbeya. It was the best 29-hour experience. I hope to do it again in the coming years.

David Livingstone died on 1st May 1873, at the age of 60, in Chief Chitambo's Village in North Rhodesia (now Zambia). His heart is buried in Africa, under a Mvula tree (now the site of the Livingstone Memorial),not in Tanzania as alleges by the reporter.
I travel by train from my hometown to the university town regularly for 7 years now. It's quite enjoyable but this train ride seems magical I would stay glued to the window the whole ride. Here you see only towns plowed fields and villages but there you see just wilderness quite nice if you ask me.
The future of this project is bleak because it was put up on the basis of pan nationalistic ideals. After Mozambique got independent, Tazara was gone. it cannot survive on the limited passenger transport and the small business we saw along the way, pole.
A great documentary. documentary indeed. It displays the beauty of Tanzania and its diverse life. On the other hand, if a thorough examination of the TAZARA is undertaken, the results will reveal that this railway line was built solely to facilitate the transportation of copper from Zambia to the Tanzanian seaport. There was nothing there for the two countries to gain except fading hopes. Those who invested in this railway line reaped significant rewards. The overall concept was not futuristic, and the project's sustainability was lacking. The two countries are now faced with the challenge of keeping this massive line and its employees operational.
i was in Iringa 64-72 when this line was started, along with the pipeline and tarring the road from Mikumu SW through Iringa, Mbeya and Tunduma. That road was hell in the wet season, & not much better in the dry. The chinese came in to Iringa to buy food, etc, and I tried to get to take my football team (Mkwawa High School) to play against them. But we couldnt get in as treated as a military project. At the time, copper was being transported out of Zambia by Fiat trucks all the way to DSM because they couldnt use the route through Rhodesia (Zimbabwe). The commentary on this otherwise interesting journey is downright awful, and unless I am mistaken, the railway does not go near L Nyasa. The shirt on the train driver is from a South African company that can now take you from Jo'burg all the way to Dar. its on my bucket list, as is my old school in Iringa, and the Serengeti.
I think the commentary tried to expand on all big Cities than just the Train stops just to give more meaning to the documentary as a whole above just the train, but they sure had some Politics with it especially when they said the Chinese are not welcomed in EA, overall good documentary i enjoyed it, am from Mbeya
i enjoyed going to Mbeya. We played rugby there (and lost), cricket (Iyunga school), and my Mkwawa football team beat an Mbeya side 4-1. On the way back, we beat Malangali scool. Eventually, I organised a football competion league that had 2 Mkwawa teams, the Lugalo school, Ifunda, Malangali, Tosamaganga, and an Njombe school.
👌Nice documentary, Photography, slow, clear & Crisp Narration. 👍 Hope Things ( TaZaRa) change for good, as railway is an important mode of transport & comparatively Cheap/ economical, Than other modes. I really appreciate 👍the spirit of Railway workers in spite of hardships & poor conditions ( Maintenance of Wagons, Equipment & Systems) they have kept the train moving gr8! 👌👍👏

At the time, copper was being transported out of Zambia by Fiat trucks all the way to DSM because they couldnt use the route through Rhodesia (Zimbabwe).
The commentary on this otherwise interesting journey is downright awful, and unless I am mistaken, the railway does not go near L Nyasa.
The shirt on the train driver is from a South African company that can now take you from Jo'burg all the way to Dar. its on my bucket list, as is my old school in Iringa, and the Serengeti.
Kamwene Mr Roderick
That's true 🤣🤣 and we'll come Tanzania again now many things changed here
I think the commentary tried to expand on all big Cities than just the Train stops just to give more meaning to the documentary as a whole above just the train, but they sure had some Politics with it especially when they said the Chinese are not welcomed in EA, overall good documentary i enjoyed it, am from Mbeya

i enjoyed going to Mbeya. We played rugby there (and lost), cricket (Iyunga school), and my Mkwawa football team beat an Mbeya side 4-1. On the way back, we beat Malangali scool. Eventually, I organised a football competion league that had 2 Mkwawa teams, the Lugalo school, Ifunda, Malangali, Tosamaganga, and an Njombe school.
I have always believed Tanzania is the heart of Africa
The train drivers have so much passion and pride for what they do❤In SA everything is just done for the money 😞 Would love to visit Tanzania some day
Thank you for this documentary.
👌Nice documentary, Photography, slow, clear & Crisp Narration. 👍
Hope Things ( TaZaRa) change for good, as railway is an important mode of transport & comparatively Cheap/ economical, Than other modes.
I really appreciate 👍the spirit of Railway workers in spite of hardships & poor conditions ( Maintenance of Wagons, Equipment & Systems) they have kept the train moving gr8! 👌👍👏
We proud to be African 🇸🇴👋
Good documentary
This is one of the best railway in Africa.
