Gabon’s Transgabonese Railway Company is training five managers for six weeks at the Railway Training Institute in Rabat. Their programme covers railway operations, infrastructure maintenance and safety, as part of the modernisation of the Transgabonese, according to Gabonclic.
Five managers from the Société d’Exploitation du Transgabonais (SETRAG), the company operating Gabon’s railway, have been undergoing a six-week advanced training programme for several weeks at the Railway Training Institute (IFF) in Rabat. Their programme covers railway operations, infrastructure maintenance and railway safety management, Gabonclic reports.
SETRAG and the IFF also discussed the educational training of experts from the Gabonese company so that they can become trainers in Gabon. This cooperation is intended to support the rehabilitation of the railway training centre in Franceville, whose work is due to be completed by the end of 2026.
A new step is planned in December with a visit to Gabon by the chairman of the IFF Management Board to SETRAG, according to Gabonclic. The training of these five managers follows that of two Setrag executives who graduated to modernise the Transgabonese, announced on 31 July 2026.
