Mind you our new ones might be something that renews my interest in them. As Amy says - driving beside them though is not fun. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286192341930680753.post-7551385990707129022014-03-13T18:09:40.659+00:002014-03-13T18:09:40.659+00:00Having just experienced roadworks in Nottingham wh...Having just experienced roadworks in Nottingham where trams are being installed I feel the pain of the Edinburgh residents. However once it's all up and running trams are brilliant! But then I'm used to Manchester's/Amsterdam's trams and yes, you have to watch out when driving or cycling but that makes things even safer for pedestrians! Hoping to visit Edinburgh for the first time later this year (Mum's 80th treat) ... I wonder if they'll be ready by then?Jimjamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10250679921843610035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286192341930680753.post-555801418091408982014-03-13T03:25:20.737+00:002014-03-13T03:25:20.737+00:00Wow, I can't believe a big city would go to th...Wow, I can't believe a big city would go to the trouble of the roadworks involved in putting trams in, I wouldn't think they would be that different from running buses. My daughter now catches a tram and train to school each day and so I am regularly reminding her to be careful stepping off - out in the burbs we step straight off the tram onto the road and sometimes the cars don't stop.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05067264634969563291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286192341930680753.post-47091995123204212702014-03-13T01:57:41.176+00:002014-03-13T01:57:41.176+00:00I love how the tram is coming right at me in your ...I love how the tram is coming right at me in your pair of photos!<br />San Francisco has all manners of buses, trams and trains.
