320km\/h: Morocco Tests Africa\u2019s Fastest High-Speed Train<\/div>\n

\n
Morocco has successfully tested Africa\u2019s fastest high-speed railway, state-owned railway operator ONCF announced on Thursday.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
ONCF said in a statement that \u201cthe latest tests were staged successfully at a speed of 320 km per hour earlier this week. It was great historical moment for the country.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In October, Morocco tested the rail line at a speed of 275km per hour in the presence of French Foreign Affairs Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian, whose country was partly financing.<\/div>\n

Since the beginning of the year, the French-made double-decker TGVs had been tested ahead of the launch of a flagship new line linking the Mediterranean city of Tangier with Morocco\u2019s financial capital Casablanca in the summer.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The next test is expected in February on the whole line, ONCF pointed out. The over $2 billion project has been in development for a decade, financed by numerous partners, including Morocco, France, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates.<\/div>\n
