History of rail transport in Angola : ウィキペディア英語版 | History of rail transport in Angola
The history of rail transport in Angola began during the nineteenth century, when Angola was a colony of Portugal. It has involved the construction, operation and destruction of four separate, unconnected, coast-to-inland systems, in two different gauges. Operations on three of those systems have been largely restored; the other system has been closed. ==Beginnings==
Plans to develop Angola by constructing railway lines existed from 1887. Two years later, the Luanda Railway ((ポルトガル語:Caminhos de Ferro de Luanda)) (Luanda–Viana–Lucala) was built and opened in the north of the colony, at the initiative of a private railway company. By 1909, that line had been extended eastwards to Malanje as a state railway. Later, a branch line was built from Zenza do Itombe to Dondo. The second significant line, the Moçâmedes Railway (Portuguese: ) (later the "Namibe Railway") (Portuguese: ), was built as a state railway, in gauge. The Moçâmedes Railway connected the port city of Moçâmedes (now Namibe), in the south of the colony, with the inland town of Menongue. In 1910, part of this line was opened. Other sections were later opened to Dongo and Cassinga before the entire line was completed.
