railway transport in Zimbabwe

Railway transport in Zimbabwe is an essential mode of moving people and goods across the country, primarily operated by the National Railways of Zimbabwe (NRZ). It features a network of standard gauge tracks connecting major cities, towns, and border points, facilitating trade and travel. The system has historically been vital for transporting agricultural products, minerals, and manufactured goods. While facing challenges like aging infrastructure and limited investments, efforts are underway to rehabilitate and modernize the railways to improve efficiency, safety, and capacity, supporting Zimbabwe’s economic development and regional integration.
