At the Nairobi Railway Museum, artifacts from the colonial era are displayed next to symbols of modern progress. Old locomotives reflect colonial ambition, while the new Standard Gauge Railway represents a shift toward infrastructure designed to serve the Kenyan people, boosting connectivity, commerce, and opportunity.

Through these contrasts, the railway transforms from mere steel and stations into a living archive of Kenya’s past and a glimpse of its future.

Join Trix Ingado and Enock Sikolia for a live session that traces Kenya's powerful railway evolution, at the Nairobi Railways Museum on the International Museum Day.
