Why Zimbabwe Hasn’t Had a Tram in 120 Years (The Sad History) - Part 1

Imagine a Harare where you don't sit in gridlock on Julius Nyerere Way, but glide through the city on a silent, electric tram. This isn't a futuristic dream—it’s a promise that has been made to Zimbabweans for over 120 years. In this video, we trace the fascinating and often heartbreaking history of Zimbabwe’s missing tram service. From the actual working tram in Mutare in 1901 to the bold underground plans of 1980, and the brand-new City Rail Munhanzva prototype unveiled at HIT in 2024. Why did these projects fail? How did the Kombi become our default transport system? And is the 120-year dream finally about to come true? #Zimbabwe #Harare #ZimbabweHistory #Transport #RoadTrips #ZimbabwesFuture #Munhanzva
