16 february 2010 - Egypt - Giza, Media City: Rarely seen by enthusiasts (who have probably never actually ridden on it) is this short tram line at a purpose-built film set in the desert near Cairo. All the buildings here are artificial, made of wood and concrete to represent an old Egyptian town. To complete the picture, an ex-Cairo tram of the 1920s has been placed on a track about 300 metres long. At my request, special arrangements were made for a small group to visit and see the tram working. Here it is seen about halfway along the track - although the gauge is incorrect, the scene is intended to represent old Alexandria and is very convincing. The tram has seen better days, standing outside in the hot sun for many years, but can still run.
