ROLLING STOCK | PERWAY | INFRASTRUCTURE | SIGNALLING | OPERATORS | LOGISTICS ISSUE 1 // 2016 EDITOR’S COMMENT RAILWAYS AFRICA 1-2016 Luck Of The Irish A guy called Murphy has this well-known law: if anything can go wrong, it will. For instance, if a train from East London hits a cow early in January, damaging the locomotive, a 17-coach express heading for the coast with anything up to 1,200 passengers on-board won’t be able to get past. If the passenger train has already spent five hours in a heatwave at Burgersdorp, standing face-to-face with another train in the middle of nowhere, it will have run out of water and the toilets will be overflowing. Not all that far away, Murphy seems to have had his hands full, with a train from Port Elizabeth that was Photographed this in the municipal transport supposed to take 20 hours to Johannesburg. It was workshops at Seattle. battling with binding brakes, overflowing toilets and no water. In the end it was to take 33 hours to complete its journey. Attempts to contact Shosholoza Meyl offices were unsuccessful. Nobody answered (Murphy again). The train manager said there was nothing she could do. Eastern Cape area operations manager for Shosholoza Meyl, Nosipho Mancotywa wasn't aware of any complaints regarding the lack of water but she confirmed the lengthy delays with News24. Mancotywa said the signals were not working at Cradock because the electricity was off. Murphy can be a real devil where electricity is involved and he is a dab hand with cockroaches. -

While the world population is expected to grow to 8.3 billion by 2030, public transport will remain the backbone of multi-modal mobility services in the future. The future market will have options within multi-modal mobility. As per UITP’s Grow with Public Transport Strategy, almost 60% of the world’s population will be living in urban areas by 2025. This implies that people will want and need to make more journeys. Urban Mobility: Think Big Act Smart is the slogan of 2016 MENA Transport Congress & exhibition. This slogan is selected to ensure that we liberate the cities of the future from the environmental, economic and social consequences of traffic congestion. The congress program will attract governments, city authorities and transport professionals from different part of the world in order to share knowledge and experience. MENA Transport Congress & Exhibition & National Association of Public Transport has joint ventured to stage school transport conference together, thus enhancing the program. The public transport authorities of the region are also keen and investing in school transport operation projects like Roads and Transports Authority (RTA) who has recently established a school transport department and ventured into school transport operation aiming at providing safe and smooth transport for all students of different ages. -
