The Kenya Railways has announced the suspension of its mid-week trains from Nairobi to Nanyuki.
The suspension will be effective June 21.
According to the organisation, the suspension will, however, be temporary.
"We wish to notify the public that we have temporarily suspended the midweek train service to Nanyuki effective Wednesday, June 21, 2023, until further notice," Kenya Railways said.
They, however, said that weekend trips will continue as usual.
"The weekend trips where we have a train departing for Nanyuki every Friday at 9:00 am and making the return trip every Sunday at 9:00 am shall continue."
The Nairobi-Nanyuki Railway was reintroduced following the revival of the Rail line by former President Uhuru Kenyatta.
The line (Nairobi to Nanyuki) cuts through Nairobi-Thika-Maragua- Sagana-Karatina-Nanyuki. The region is rich in tea, coffee and dairy farming.
The Kenya Railway revival brought to life a project that had remained dormant for more than two decades.
The revamping of the Nairobi Commuter Railways began in 2020, in what was aimed at easing traffic congestion along city roads.
The rehabilitation started with upgrades to the Nairobi Railway station and those within the neighbouring counties of Kiambu and Machakos, among others.
It is highly seen as one of Uhuru's successful projects.
