Getting around in Bamako
You can get a lot into a van... but a moped looks very stylish... and the train goes right to the middle of town.

Just like where you live, different sorts of transport are used in Bamako. Mopeds are popular, as are cars and vans. What is the van advertising? The train is at a level crossing. The station is right in the centre of the city.
