Mauritania, October 2024

Tony rode the famous Iron Ore Train, along with a group of like-minded adventurers in Mauritania, northwest Africa. Reputed to be the world’s longest train, at over two kilometres long. It runs from Zoerat in the east to Nouadhibou in the west, across the desert. This video highlights the roughness of the train and its journey. Tony and his companions sat and lay in an open waggan on top of the ore for 18 hours of rough fun and wild experiences!
Tony is still riding the famous Mauritanian Iron Ore train from Zouerat to Nouadhibou! It’s a long journey, at least 18 hours! The train, with 126 waggans full of heavy ore, is said to be the longest in the world and Tony is riding it! Look at him go. This all made possible by T’Ore Mauritania, a locally run company, who offer guided trips by 4×4 vehicle across the desert to interesting sites. Riding the train is the highlight of any tour. https://toremauritania.com
