Photos: Check out the newly acquired trains by NRC

These are the new trains recently acquired by the Nigerian Railway Commission, which is due to be rolled out soon. The new trains were ordered by the MD of NRC, Mr Adeseyi Sijuwade. See more photos after the cut...

      First class looks like regular cabin. I wonder if they have tables sef not to mention sockets/ reading lamps. The standard cabin looks like tube carriage for short distances. It will be quite uncomfortable to sit down on a seat with no demarcation for a long journey, some ppl will always spill their fat beyond their space.

      They ARE refurbished and outdated. When other countries upgrade their technologies, guess where they throw their outdated technologies ....Africa! And we will be jumping that we are growing when we are simply eating the Vomit of other countries. God knows how much they will charge for boarding.
      Btw... Hope the trains are interstate? That's where it would make a lot of sense

    Mr MD learn from your foreign counterparts, all the seats on that train should be like those in the first class cabin.. Do you expect people to travel from Lagos to Kano in the other cabin where the seats are like those on the london underground ? Haba you people should reason things thoroughly before making decisions thats why youre being paid.

      The seats of the London Underground are padded. These seats are like the New York subway which is just within the city, cause the LIRR and the metro north In NYC have very good seats. Nigerians in authority like to take the rest of ordinary Nigerians for fools and unworthy of the best

    Still many silly Nigerians here are still complaining they are not new..How many new trains do America have? Can't you guys count 1 before 2? Is it because is not APC government? Hypocrisy will kill 80% of Nigerians...Even if they are old,how many years was the rail system in Nigeria abandoned? 39 years...and some of you guy want magic for 4 years with many distractions...Sorry some LIB readers are sadists..

    We celebrate mediocrity in this country. With all the resources we have we are celebrating a used train from China,when most countries have been using state of the art world class trains over 20 years ago. Only God knows how much they would have paid for this chinco train that will be parked after 8 months. We need to demand for better living and better infrastructure that meets current world standard.

    Can't y'all just appreciate? New, old or refurbished, which trains did we have before? They look better than some trains I've seen her in London b4 they were upgraded recently and even in New York! Do we in Naija, have the infrastructure and ELECTRICITY to run a powered train? NO! So in that case only a locomotive would do. Or would u like the new modern train, and then half way on a journey you get a power cut and you're stuck in the middle of no where? As Nigerians, we r very destructive so therefore plastic seating is the best thing in this case bcos they can easily be cleaned an sanitised. I bet half of the people moaning about the trains being old are those who have only seen trains on TV because trains don't come much different to what you see on this page.

    So guys please stop criticising progress and let's appreciate. This is the first series of progress that NRC has made in decades. Rome wasn't built in a day. We'll done to the MD, looking forward to better things coming our way.

    THE TRAINS ARE HORRIBLE. THE TRAINS ARE AT LEAST 50 YEARS OLD. WHOEVER IS REPONSIBLE FOR BUYING THESE EYESORE JUST ROBBED NIGERIA AND MUST BE ARRESTED AND PROBED (BY EFCC) AND JAILED.

    There is too much negativity (...or denial) from some quarters, as they never see anything positive the authority/govt does.
    "If dem no buy,una go complain...dem buy,una still dey complain".
    Admit it or not, this is a step up from what we've been used to in Nigeria.
    Also, some people are too lazy or daft to comprehend that the interior of the first coach could be for short commutes (intra city).
    There should be some acknowledgement of the effort being put to resuscitate the NRC,even though there is still a long way to go.

    Peace to you all!
