its like saying "Traveling Across the USA" and then proceeding to get a flight from NYC to LA, visit albania and then we'll talk about you having visited the balkans

There are currently no functioning trains in Albania. I know because I went there too. The documentary has a train theme, so that is why Albania is not included.

I must say, as a train enthusiast, I loved this program. It is real travel thru a strange land. Still with beauty and mystery. This is much better than the high priced luxurious train I've seen on u tube, with plump rich white people only on it. Not the reality that you have shown. I am now subcribed. Thank you. P.j. California USA.

This isn't west Africa. It's South west Africa. West Africa is Sierra Leone lol. And if anyone's going to reply some nonsense, I'd recommend searching the map of the "mid-west" or "southern" US. I know this video is probably for the EU to US western audience, but imagine how they'd feel about the journalistic integrity of The Telegraph when a TikTok goes viral about this video, months-years from now. Anyway, fix the title to "West to East of Southern Africa" or at least "South-West to East Africa"; Tanzania is part of SADC and EAC.

I enjoyed your video.How can such a rich beautiful continent remain so impoverished and dangerous?

@NeilShawTravels 26 күн бұрын

That is the million dollar question. I'll try to give some of my perspectives. To start with the European colonial period caused some damage which African countries have struggled to get past (Europeans carved up the continent and created countries where none existed putting together many different ethnic groups and often pitting them against each other to divide and rule -- Rwanda is a good example of a terrible outcome of that. The DR Congo is a massive resource-rich country the size of Western Europe created by Belgium, whose kleptocratic leader Mobutu, installed by the west, drove the "country" into the ground. Tanzania also consists of many different ethnic groups but Nyerere managed to nation-build so they have also been at peace). Prior to the colonial period, the slave trade was also damaging to African society. Since independence (most African countries in the 1960s) mistakes were made (centralised economies that were a failure, for example) and weak government institutions are an on-going issue. How can Africa have strong governments and not strong men? I believe among all the challenges there is hope in the thriving multiparty democracies such as Zambia and Ghana.

And it's interesting that with only a handheld, you make better scenic views and portraits than the KZfaqrs with their drones. It's all about the heart of it, capturing the essence, rather than the technology. 🙏

By mixing water from two different oceans, there is a risk of spreading invasive species. Even a small amount can release unwated creatures into an ecosystem that is not theirs.

Great video. But it's a pity that one cannot do the whole distance by train these days! Your trip on the Tazara reminds me of the trip that I made on it way back in 1979. Now this was only a few years after the line was opened but already standards were on freefall! We arrived in good time for a 10.30pm departure at Kapiri Mposhi. We were travelling first class and once on board we decided to crash out before departure time. I woke up at 6am next morning to find that we had not moved at all during the night. Hours passed and at last we heard that there had been a derailment some way up the track. Also, food in the buffet car, plus gas, had already run out! Luckily, we had bought bread and a tin of cheese and this was our only food for two days on the train. Now one would normally see food vendors at each station waiting for the arrival of their customers on the train. But since we finally left at 3pm - just 17 hours behind schedule, they had long given up and all the stations en route were eerily quiet. We finally arrived exactly 24 hours late at Dar [we were on the train for a staggering 62 hours!] and I was in serious puking mode! So, mismanagement of Tazara began not long after the trains began operating and the Tazara official you met was quite correct in what he said! But it was an experience!

@NeilShawTravels 3 ай бұрын

Interesting to read your perspective and experiences. On the other hand despite the delays that are the norm, the TAZARA still functions! In my home country of South Africa we no longer have long distance trains at all. And a year ago in Greece, one week before I planned to take the Athens-Thessaloniki train, it was involved in a horrific accident which left at least 57 dead....
