Description

Wikipedia 2012:
Egypt's railway museum was built in 1932 next to Misr Station (now Ramses Station) in Cairo. The museum opened in January 1933 to mark the city's hosting of the International Railway Congress. Its stock of over 700 items includes models, historic drawings and photographs. Among its most prominent exhibits are three preserved steam locomotives:
- 2-4-2 no. 30, built by Robert Stephenson and Company in 1862
- 0-6-0 no. 986 (originally 189, then 142), built by Robert Stephenson and Company in 1861
- 4-4-2 no. 194 (originally 678) built by the North British Locomotive Company in 1905
