Zim, DRC railway firms pursue partnership deal

THE Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC)’s railway giant, Societe Nationale des chemins de fer du Congo (SNCC), yesterday toured National Railways of Zimbabwe (NRZ) facilities to assess how the two firms could enhance their transportation systems.

Officials said SNCC was keen on refurbishing NRZ’s high-sided wagons to bolster bulk cargo shipment between Harare and Kinshasa.

High-sided wagons have a level floor and solid sides with at least one door on each side.
