Mac Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 New Gogar Depot at Edinburgh. Possible idea for a layout ? Mac Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rammstein2609 Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 More like a diorama :-) It's quite frustrating driving past there everyday and seeing the trams just sitting there. Bit of a waste. Cheers Martin Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium jamie92208 Posted July 15, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 15, 2012 According to British Trams Online the track next to the depot, which is also used as a test track is to be extended soon which should mean that more trams should be seen running.

Horsetan Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 I was listening to Mark Steel's In Town, when he was in Leith. Apparently the trams are a bit of a sore subject there....as are the digging of holes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold tractionman Posted May 31, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 31, 2014 For those wishing to see the trams in action, there is a nice bit of footage of them in this report: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-27647446 I think the rolling stock looks very stylish, Edinburgh's done well to keep its public transport in sensible liveries! cheers, Keith Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Re6/6 Posted May 31, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 31, 2014 At last.... ...but true to form, on the Radio 4 'Today' this morning, having had a 'pro' and a 'con' debate the issue, but in the main 8 o'clock, the dear old BBC only broadcast the very negative 'con' argument. Again editorial bias ...echoes of their coverage of the negative and 'suspect facts' brigade on the HS2 debate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
