LOCOMOTIVES ROLLS TO AFRICA
The handover of the first batch of the ‘H10 Series’
locomotives by SMH Rail to Tanzania Railways
Corporation (“TRC”) was successfully completed
and is expected to bring positive enhancements
to the African Rail cargo industry. Through
the development of these Malaysian built
‘Green’ locomotives, SMH Rail has affectively

world class players in the global rail industry.
Energy-efficient and eco-designed, the ‘H10

the Tanzanian Government railroad’s unique
operational needs through seamless connectivity
and enhanced accessibility.

The cutting-edge ‘green’ tech was financed by EXIM Bank, despite the
challenging pandemic environment, and is in line with its mandate to promote
and facilitate cross-border trade and investments of Malaysian businesses.

The occasion was graced by the Works and Transport Minister of Tanzania,
Prof. Makame M. Mbarawa, and it is hoped that the successful completion
and delivery of these locomotives will boost Malaysian-African relations and
further drive economic empowerment through export.
