Another train crash in Egypt


Two weeks didn't pass since the Kalyoub train crash in Egypt , then we have another train crash yesterday . Two trains as usual collided each other , this time one for goods ,the others for passengers , two are reported to be killed and 20 are injured .Ironically it is near Kalyoub again !!


OK let's face the facts


Trains in Egypt are very very old , some of them go back to the 1960s


Train drivers conditions are the worst , small salaries that barely sorry never meets the high requirement of living conditions in Egypt , very hard work conditions and their union can't do anything to improve their conditions because they are facing the government our blessed governments through all those years !!


With all this annual returns for the State railways there is no improvement at all , the government didn't buy any new train I don't know since when , may be the Spanish train was the last new train the Egyptian State bought from a decade !! Of course Our president Thank God at last decided as usual to be our Savior and Saved the Egyptian State Railways from privatisation when he decided to improve the Railways with 5 billion Egyptian Pounds !! Of course History will remark this daring generous decision as one of his achievements !!
