The museum's main building. Unfortunately, no electric trams or trolleybuses have been preserved. Pigeons can enter undisturbed with the known consequences.

Algiers,  Horse car  # 77 

Musée Étusa

On my previous visit (from 2014), they could tell little about the history of this vehicle, except that it was an old tram and the fake trolley indicated that this might once have been an electric tram. Now a sign is present, stating that this is an 1898 horse tram. The trolley is still there and the covers protect the vehicle from the passage of the many pigeons in the building.
