中国修的这条“世纪铁路”今天在肯尼亚通车

2017-05-31 10:10:47   人民政协网

2011年,中国路桥集团与肯尼亚政府签署合作备忘录,中方将以中国国铁一级标准建造新的蒙内铁路,这样是肯尼亚历史上首次出现宽度1.435米的铁轨,告别了英国殖民地时期1米“窄轨”铁路。

据中国路桥官网介绍,新的蒙内铁路设计客运时速120公里,货运时速80公里。这条铁路的修通能将货运成本降低40%。两地之间的客运时间则从原来的十几个小时缩短到4个小时。

法国国际广播电台(RFI)报道,肯尼亚政府则认为新铁路将为肯尼亚带来每年1.5%的GDP增长。

不仅如此,这项工程还为肯尼亚提供了3万多个就业岗位,并培养了当地一批铁路技术人才。蒙内铁路项目总经理部总经理孙立强介绍说,在全体员工中,中方管理和技术人员只占2678人,中肯员工比例为1∶10左右。这一项目还为肯尼亚培养了743名铁路运营人才,其中包括肯尼亚历史上首批女性列车驾驶员。

据Prokerala网站报道,肯尼亚女驾驶员Concilia等人将在今天进行的通车仪式上,操作驾驶这条路线的首发客运列车,她的乘客包括了肯尼亚总统肯雅塔。

“疯狂铁路”,英国人震惊不解

每经小编(微信号:nbdnews)注意到,2016年,BBC曾发表文章,质疑蒙内铁路计划的可行性。在一百多年前,英国议员曾经把这条线路称作“疯狂铁路”(lunatic line),英国殖民官员和肯尼亚当地人民曾在这里付出过惨重的生命代价。

内罗毕铁路博物馆至今还保留着一项特殊的藏品,3枚来自一百多年前的老虎爪子。

助理研究员Elias Randiga表示,这些爪子来自两只1896年铁路动工时袭击工人的老虎。当时,凶猛的老虎经常到铁路沿线撕扯咬人,甚至吃人的现象也时常发生,肯尼亚工人和英国官员都曾命丧虎爪。

据内罗毕铁路博物馆统计,大约有100人死于老虎口中,还有4000人因疾病和其他动物丧命。英国殖民当局修建的这段从肯尼亚到乌干达的铁路,平均每公里要牺牲4人。

从蒙巴萨港到内罗毕要深入东非大陆,自然条件恶劣。肯尼亚以野生动物观光闻名,老虎、狮子、野象、犀牛等野生动物都会对人构成威胁。除此之外,当地湿热的气候加上众多沼泽,使得蚊虫疟疾传播迅速,野外工程人员的身体健康随时会受到考验。
