From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bénirail is the concessioned railway system of Benin. It is being rehabilitated by the Bolloré Group.[1]
The project includes complete replacement of the track and the rehabilitation of the stations at Cadjèhoun Saint-Jean, Godomey, Cococodji and Pahou.
A passenger service to be called Blueline using second-hand coaches from Switzerland's Zentralbahn is due to start in late 2015. Bénirail will purchase BB204 diesel locomotives and Nippon Sharyo coaches from Indonesia.
