DESPITE opening a new electrified main line in 2016, parts of the old metre-gauge Chemin de Fer Djibouto-Ethiopien still appear to have some operational trains, although passenger services on the full route ceased in 2008.

It was originally owned by a Franco-British company, and operated using mostly French- and Swiss-built steam locos.
