I dreamt about it for long. When I was living in Nairobi, I used to tell my taxi drivers what the city really needed was a tramway or something of that kind.

The BBC has a few pictures in this video and more details:

A new commuter train has been launched in Kenya's capital, Nairobi - the first of its kind since independence in 1963.
