It is clear from, the passage that the aim in building the line in the Gold Coast ……………
In nineteenth century Africa there were plans to build a
great north-to-south railway from Cairo to the Cape,
but this was never completed. Instead, the colonial
powers concentrated on building lines within their own
territories. The line built In 1900 in the Gold Coast (now
Ghana) was typical. It linked the gold mines near
Tarkwa with the coast. 65 kilometers away. The line
passed through hot. wet, tropical jungle. The
construction, however, was brought to a halt when
Ashanti tribesmen attacked the surveyors and
engineers and forced them to retreat to the coast. They
were besieged for nearly four months, until a British
force relieved them. Within a year the first train was
taking a load of heavy mining machinery to Tarkwa.
