Edinburgh Trams Tested Overnight

There were mixed feelings watching the progress of the test. The trams won’t be ready to take their first passengers until May 2014, a delay of three years  from the initial planned completion date.  With the budget for the trams being overspent by over £400m, and years of traffic delays during the building works, many locals are likely to be pretty scathing about this progress towards completion.The December weather gave the trams a fairly stormy reception. The forecast for severe gales has resulted in trains being cancelled across the country.
