Dawn of new era as KR revitalises Nairobi commuter train services

In a world where businesses continue to adapt to changing times, commuter rail has become an integrated part of most countries’ transport networks. Besides enabling urban expansion, these heavy rail systems have far-reaching economic ramifications as commuters move easily from one point to another in various nation-building activities. To improve customer experience, major cities such as London, New York and Paris use these services to connect with more compact systems, like metro and light rail networks.

The world over, government policy of increasing capacity is directly addressing many of the problems commuters are experiencing. In China, for instance, the commuter train is usually run for railway staff to commute or consult their doctor, but also takes their children to school and brings them back in some areas.
