In this episode of Coffee with the Editor, filmed at the Southern African Railways Association (SARA) annual conference and exhibition, Phillippa Dean engages with Kannan Ponnusamy, Head of Business Development at SMH Rail. They explore SMH Rail’s impactful projects across Africa, focusing on locomotive remanufacturing in Kenya, Tanzania, Zambia and new ventures in South Africa. Kannan provides key insights into the remanufacturing of three Alco locomotives for Kenya Shipyard Limited, with Kenya Railways Corporation as the end user. These locomotives, which were initially grounded for over 30 years, have been revitalised and are now back in service. The discussion then shifts to Tanzania, where SMH Rail has remanufactured over 35 locomotives and supplied new units, funded by the World Bank. Additionally, Kannan outlines SMH Rail’s expansion plans in South Africa, including their partnership with Leruo Rail Africa and the establishment of a new facility to support locomotive and wagon maintenance. Discover how SMH Rail is harnessing its global experience and innovative solutions to meet Africa’s unique rail infrastructure needs.
