KES: every fee recorded for Kenya is priced in it.
Of 18 fee records, 1 is published by the provider, 2 are reported by a scheme, a regulator or wide documentation, and 15 are estimated. Each fee shows which it is and when it took effect.
Corridor pages price one route at a time, which is a different question from what a rail costs in this market.
