Railway stations in Tanzania

A railway station is like a big house where trains stop so people can get on and off. In Tanzania, there are many railway stations where people can use the train to go to other places.

At the railway stations, there are people who work there called station masters. They make sure that the trains run on time and that everyone gets on and off safely. They also make sure that the trains have enough fuel or electricity to keep running.

The railway stations in Tanzania have different parts. There is a waiting area where people sit and wait for their train, some stations have benches and others have chairs or even sofas! There is also a ticket office where people can buy a ticket to get on the train.

When it is time for the train to come, there is usually an announcement or a whistle that tells everyone to get ready. Then the train arrives, and people help load their luggage onto the train.

The train stops at different stations along the way to pick up more passengers and drop off others. At each station, the station master ensures that the train is safe and ready to continue its journey.

In Tanzania, the railway stations are an important way for people to travel and move goods from one place to another. They help people get around the country easily and safely.
