Railways in Niger

edit

Can you please supply some details about the new railway in Niger, such as:

  • gauge (1000mm or 1067mm or 1435mm or mixed?)
  • weight of rail per metre ?
  • maximum axle load ?
  • sleepers (concrete?)
  • coupling ?
  • brakes (almost certainly Westinghouse air)
  • sharpest curves ?
  • steepest gradients ?
  • maximum train lengths ?

Will the connecting railway in Benin be upgraded to suit? Tabletop (talk) 01:22, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
