history

The Chemins de Fer de la Basse-Egypte were founded on January 26, 1896 by the Belgian baron Édouard Empain (* 1852, † 1929) as a stock corporation. The majority of the supervisory board was made up of Belgians: Prince Hussein Pascha Kamil (President), Riaz Pascha , A. Sinadino, the brothers Édouard and François Empain , the brothers G. and Frédéric de La Hault , Gustave Kumps and Ernest Urban . ^{§ 34}

The Belgian engineer Jean Jadot (* 1862, † 1932) directed the construction of the railway line . The main route connected Mansourah on the Nile with Matariya on Lake Manzala (across from Port Said ).

Sales rose from £ 26,199 in 1904, over £ 29,872 in 1905, £ 32,122 in 1906 to £ 36,740 in 1907. They then fell to £ 35,760 in 1908 and to £ 35,184 in the year 1909.
