Société des transports de Tunis

In 1872 Tunisia's first railway was inaugurated linking Tunis to La Goulette.

A suburban train between Tunis, Bab Saadoun and La Manouba was opened in 1903.

The Société nationale des transports (SNT) was charged to manage transit in the greater Tunis area in 1964.

First trains on Line 1 began to operate between Tunis and Ben Arous in 1985.

In 2003 the SNT and the Société du métro léger de Tunis were combined.
