When you think of rail what is the first thing you think of? Thomas the Tank Engine? Tracks? High-speed? First-class engineering? Now think of the people who make our railways a reality – if you imagine a Tram Driver, Rail Technician or Depot Supervisor what do you think of? Let us guess… middle aged male?

Tram Only
To celebrate the most wonderful time of year, we’ve decided to rename some of our fleet after the unsung heroes of Christmas, after all if Santa didn’t have his reindeer to drop off all his presents how would all the lovely girls and boys receive them!

Tuesday 24 December
Normal weekday service on Christmas Eve until approximately 9pm with trams from every seven minutes.
To help customers enjoy a packed programme of celebrations, Edinburgh Trams has teamed up with Edinburgh’s Hogmanay producer, Underbelly, to run free trams from every 20 minutes (from midnight on December 31 to 5am on January 1) between the West End and Edinburgh Airport.
Sarah Singh, Operations Manager, Edinburgh Trams:
Yes. We recommend that customers use a smaller, easily foldable buggy where possible. Passengers who board with an unfolded buggy should position it in the buggy space whenever that space is available. If the wheelchair space is needed by a wheelchair user, customers with unfolded buggies are asked to make it available.
Lea Harrison, Managing Director, Edinburgh Trams said:
“Edinburgh Trams is extremely fortunate to have many ex-service personnel in our organisation, and we will continue to support those who serve and their families through our partnership with the Armed Forces Covenant.”
