Summary
[edit].jpg&action=edit§ion=1){kind=link}
| Description |
Conakry railway station. The French built a railway from Conakry through Kankan and onto Mali. Unlike the railway on the coast there is no bauxite here and so no companies to ensure the railway stayed open. It closed down twenty years ago. Apparently a minister flogged the rails to a trader, he was arrested when the junta took power in December 2008. The railway buildings linger on abandoned, echoes of provincial France now past. |
