Lake Tanganyika Mtwara Line (Southern Province Railway) - (defunct) In 1949 a line was built to link the
Tanganyika groundnut scheme plantations around
Nachingwea with the port of
Mtwara. The scheme famously foundered and the railway was abandoned in 1962. Proposals have been made for a new railway to link Mtwara to
iron ore deposits in the west, perhaps linking via
Songea to
Liganga.
Island of Unguja A short line lasted from 1879 to 1888.
