Sometimes you just have to be grateful to Edinburgh Trams for providing us with news to report on! The number of trams in standard fleet colours continues to reduce with now only three remaining following the application of a new advert on 254. The advertiser this time around is Parabola who are developing a new “community and architectural exemplar” (no, we don’t have a clue either!) at Edinburgh Park, completing the development at this location.
254 follows the now standard pattern of adverts with the third and fifth sections having full height adverts and the remainder of the tram just having the area above the windows covered by the vinyls. We have been challenged to describe the colour of the advert but all we can come up with is plaster colour! It is a very simple advert with very limited signwriting included. The website address at the bottom of the advert doesn’t currently actually tell you anything as you get a 404 error when attempting to access it!
The three trams still in fleet livery? 264, 265 and 268. How much longer will they survive? And who will be the first to complete Edinburgh Trams advert bingo!
