Can you (Abs616) please make the following changes to Africa HSR 2063 (1).svg :-
- Make the image a bit smaller so that it fits on an A4 page when printed.
- Change the light colour yellow for a darker colour say orange so that it is visible on a Black & White print.
- Vary the thickness of the railway lines according to the gauge.
- : Standard gauge (1435mm) Wide
- : Cape gauge (1067mm) Medium
- : Metre gauge (1000mm) Narrow
- : Dual gauge a mixture of widths.
- Ghana is building a Standard gauge line northwards towards Ouagadougou capital of Burkina Faso, but this is not shown.About 1000km. Speed 160km/h.
- Cameroon is building a Standard gauge line 580km eastwards from Kribi towards Mbalam and Nabeba, but the HS line uses the metre gauge line through Yaounde.
- Guinea is building a standard gauge iron ore line 650km eastwards from Matagong port towards Simandou. A short branch is needed to link with the 1000mm gauge at Conakry.
The amended map could be useful for the "Africa Rail 2024" conference on 25 & 26 June 2024.
- Showing electrification (25kVAC or 3000VDC) and double track on the base map would be too cluttered, so this information might be shown on a separate map.
- : 25kVAC or 50kVAC Wide line;
- : 1500VDC Medium line
- : No Electrification Narrow Line.
