Eritrean Railway-Part 4 Into the Second Day

In the afternoon of the first day of our trip we experienced a sudden thunderstorm mid afternoon before going on a quick tour of the workshops after the short trip out of Asmara and back. On the second day the morning was taken up with a run to Arbaroba and return. The weather high up in Asmara was very pleasant with temperatures in the low twenties centigrade.

Sehr schön! 5*****!

Is this line only a tourist line or is there freight and regular passenger traffic, too?

When I was there trains were being run only during the dry season for visitors , there has been talk of regular passenger and freight services but not sure if anything has happened in that respect

thanks for watching

You've got to love it; between 2:35 to 2:37and 4:40 to 4:47 is man doing a job that's nearly extinct for every other train in the world. Except perhaps for his title "the brakeman" walks around the train with a walkie-talkie now-a-days reporting anomolies
