Recently, my adventurous sibling & I decided on a train trip šŸ˜ŠšŸš‚. We booked our tickets at the TAZARA main office, [quite a lot of shenanigans but thatā€™s a story for another day.] Hereā€™s a short account of our trip to Mbeya: #DestinationsTanzania

10am: As the punctual people we are, we were at the station 3 hours before boarding time but alas! they announced our train would be delayed for 3 more hours due to repairsšŸ¤£ Thereā€™s no decent cafe in the station so we went to Mkuki Mall to pass time & because we were hungry.

03:30pm: We started boarding and the safari started at 04:15pm. We got settled in our cabin with 2 other passengers & were now trying to get used to the sound of the train in the tracks & the rocking motion (unfiltered evidence attached, Frame 4)šŸ¤£

Very soon it was dark & we were trying to sleep after chatting with our fellow cabin members. Weā€™d wake up to the loud train whistle as it approached the stations. We passed Kisaki, Mangā€™ula, Ifakara, Mngeta during the night.

6am: Mlimba As you guessed, we were both up very early trying to catch the sunrise & what notšŸ¤£ as we arrived at Mlimba (500kms from TAZARA & about 13 hours now). It was time to service the train locomotive as we waited.

@tahirhothman Not at the moment pls but I will give you a tip that you should maybe book your ticket 2 weeks prior and make sure you go to the station at TAZARA.
