- Description
- "A man went on a journey and took the train." The railway has reached this spot far into the interior of the Congo. It is a narrow gauge (about 2' 6") line which runs from Aketi on one of the northern tributaries of the Congo eastwards to the edge of the great tropical Ituri forest, In common with many other parts of Africa local railway trains have struck the imagination and figure frequently in song. It is interesting to note the "Ai-yo-o" of the singer so often heard in guitar songs. Party song with a Kombi and 1 Gbe-Kombi Likembe.
