Slightly defective Helwan tram - a photo on Flickriver

Slightly defective Helwan tram

            Cairo Transport Authority 6006 a 1978 Japanese Kinki Sharyo bogie tram, part of a coupled pair on 4 September 1993.  Displaying a hand painted route board for service 42 from Helwan to 15 May City, it has just arrived at the main Atal Al Barkokl junction of this isolated three route system on the south edge of Cairo.
The front of the tram had obviously had collision damage resulting in the drooping front bumper, but not severe enough to stop this robust tram from running.  The missing side windows did allow passengers a view, as the others were covered in thick cement dust from the works next to the depot.  The missing headlight bulbs may have been safely stored inside, as this was not the only tram without them.
