[SMM Aluminum Express News] Four new locomotives, Foussein, Lanny-Ninkin, Kaporo, and Gbereakhory have entered service on Guinea's TransGuinean corridor rail line, managed by La Compagnie du TransGuinéen (CTG). Primarily built to haul high-grade iron ore from Simandou mine to Morebaya port (650 km), these Wabtec units (part of a 78-locomotive fleet) support heavy loads for faster, reliable shipments. The corridor's high-capacity infrastructure (12 stations, 206 bridges, rugged terrain adaptations) also enables transport of bauxite and other minerals, creating a multi-commodity logistics backbone that could shorten transit for landlocked neighbors (e.g., Mali) and boost regional mineral exports.
