The trials of travel in Tanzania
... bus was running behind schedule and we pulled in to the train station with just minutes to spare before the train left at 16.20. This was the first time we witnessed any mode of transport leaving on time.
The Tazara has seen better days but, as with most trains, still has a certain charm and we settled in to our cabin and watched the scenery pass us by. At every station we would be met by locals trying to sell us boiled eggs or simply to just ask for ...
