Making music woo hoo were starting this week in africa on a train line that passes through some of the continents wildest landscape. The Freedom Railway cuts through more than 18,000 kilometres of dense jungle, mountains and savannah as it winds its way from Dar Es Salaam in tanzania to zambias central province. 1,800km. But more than a0 years after it opened, its now beginning to show its age and is overdue for a major upgrade. We bought a ticket and went to find out what makes the journey so unique. And if youre tempted by a rail journey through africa, heres our pick of some of the highlights. The continents first ever high speed train line is due to open this summer in morocco.
