All these systems are 1000 mm gauge. A future stage would link Mali, Nigeria and Ghana which are of 1000 mm, 1067 mm changing to 1435 mm and 1067 mm respectively. Estimated cost : 2 billions US $ (building 2,000 Km lines). Target and objectives : - Opening up the landlocked countries to the transport of passengers, goods and equipments from inside the Burkina Faso-Niger area to the bordering regions such as South-East Mali and North-West Nigeria. - Enabling a better exploitation of agricultural and mining resources from the inside areas. - Providing a train service between the ports of Lome and Cotonou. http://www.africarail.org/ [/QB][/QUOTE]
