The report is principally concerned with the results of privatization rather than the processes or detailed concession structures, which have varied from country to country depending on diverse local circumstances.

The report contains three main sections: (i) A summary of the background to railway development in sub-Saharan Africa to the start of the 1990's, together with a list of the railway privatizations and concessions undertaken over the last 10 years and a brief description of the main concessionaires; (ii) A more detailed presentation of the thirteen concessions, particularly the three which have been operating the longest ; (iii) An assessment of the overall results of railway privatization/concessioning. 2014-03-26T21:28:13Z 2014-03-26T21:28:13Z 2005-01 http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2005/01/6762585/results-railway-privatization-africa http://hdl.handle.net/10986/17415 English en_US Transport papers series;no.
