Livingstone Airport (LVI) Train & Subway Services

There is no Livingstone Airport train, but of interest to travellers:

The railway station is located east of the Mosi-oa-Tunya Road, approximately one kilometre south of the town centre on the way to Victoria Falls. The station is clearly marked with road signs and the telephone number for reservations is 03 321001, extension 336.

The 'Zambezi Express' departs from Livingstone at 18:00 on Wednesdays and Sundays and reaches Lusaka at 08:00 the next morning. However, train timings are unreliable. Tickets can be booked only at the railway station on the day of departure itself. Confirmation of the booking is only done on payment, and you must be there in person. The fare for economy class is approximately USD 9.00 (ZMK 35,000) for standard class.

There is a train that leaves for the Copper Belt from Livingstone twice a week, at 20:00 on Mondays and Fridays, reaches Lusaka at 10:00 and terminates in Kitwe on the third day morning around 06:00 (So it takes 3 days to be in Copperbelt). Fares for standard class USD 8.00 (ZMK 30,000) and for sleeper compartments USD 12.00 (ZMK 42,100). There are also train services from Lusaka up to the Copper Belt or down towards Johannesburg.

If you want to go south towards Bulawayo or Johannesburg, the best way to reach there is to cross the border at Victoria Falls either on foot or by taxi and then take the overnight train to Bulawayo. There used to be train services running between Livingstone and Victoria Falls but they do not operate anymore.
