I just wanna build so many railways

I can open up Google Maps, go to any random corner of the world, and immediately start thinking about what sort of railways could go there--or already exist there

Many African countries don't have railways at all; those that do mostly inherited them from colonial days, and can only get marginal use out of them because of their routes & condition. North Africa and South Africa have the most developed networks that I'm aware of.

I know they're a right mess of gauges. Do you think african people would benefit from a widespread rail project?

I think the international scale of an Africa-wide project would be a logistical nightmare to pull off, but many smaller projects focusing on particular cities and countries would be helpful, and are currently being undertaken
