Hi.

Leaving on a trip to vic falls, okavango etc in a week. Does anyone know if the train from gaberone to francistown is still running. there seem to be conflicting reports online.

Thanks

It is my understanding that this service stopped in 2009. I believe if they reinstated the service they would have posted another article on their site. Check out the link below. Hope this helps
