In Alexandria, they have something called a Tram, which is almost like our train...uses electricity. (By the way what form of energy powers our trains?/) Now you only need a quarter of a pound, that's like 2 bob, to get from one end of the city to the other. Amazing.

Our trains are powered by electricity.


Exactly, people normally mistake that billowing diesel smoke from the engine to think otherwise.
Its electric.

ION:Egypt's electric trains uses electric power from the mighty Nile River yet we the source of the Nile are in perpetual blackout!

Just like majority of the people thought that the world was square and flat.

If we sort the public transportation make it efficient and affordable, we will solve so many problems and save lots of cash.

Public transport is the responsibility of the government and should not be dominated by private sector. MO-1 had a nice idea with the Nyayo bus had it not been for poor management.

Don't be naive. Nyayo bus was an opportunity for people to eat through the procurement rather than a master stroke to solve public transport problems. No different from the london taxis, mahindra police vehicles, goldenberg and the gichuru kplc deals.

Wait until construction of the overpass from City Cabanas starts.

The government just needs to increase the number of users so as to lower the average cost and therefore drop the fare downwards.
Marketing may fix specifically the kind of marketing that convinces Kenyans that driving their jalopies to work every day does not make economic sense.
