Nairobi - Trains
Nairobi's train station on Station Road (tel: (020) 221 211) is very central. There is a matatu (minibuses) station immediately outside for transport to and from the station. Otherwise simply walk along Moi Avenue to the city centre.
Kenya's railways have been neglected for years and are in a sorry state. Almost all services are suspended, the exceptions being the lines between Nairobi and Mombasa, and Nairobi and Kisumu. The former, which runs through the Athi Plains and across the Marangu Plains, is a particular favourite and runs daily, although it is frequently subject to lengthy delays. The Nairobi to Kisumu train operates three times a week.
There are three classes of seat, based on the number of people sharing a berth. Meals and bedding cost a little extra.
