Rail transport in Benin
text:
Benin has a total of 578 km (359 mi) of single track, 1,000 mm (3 ft 3+3⁄8 in) railway. Rail construction began around 1900, with regular services commencing in 1906; rail operation was taken into government control in 1930. Benin does not currently share railway links with adjacent countries, although at least three are planned, and the link into Niger is already under construction. Niger possesses no other railways; so the new line will provide a first and only rail route to and from that coun
