In Pictures: The other side of 276’s advert

We’ve previously featured 276 – or Rudolph as it prefers to be known at the moment – and its new Hogmanay and Christmas advert on these pages but only one side of the tram (the side which was all about Hogmanay) but now we bring you images of Rudolph and his Christmas adverts. Once more the standard Edinburgh Trams design is carried with sections three and five of the tram having full height adverts whilst the remainder of the tram just carries roof height ads. Photos from Roy Calderwood.

276 stands departs from St Andrew Square on 12th December showing off its Christmas advert. Behind the tram the building with the flagpoles is the ex-British Linen Bank, ex-Bank of Scotland and future Gleneagles Hotel whilst the building above the middle section of the tram is the Edinburgh Grand (apartments, bar and restaurant) which was originally the headquarters of National Bank of Scotland. Also visible is a new build development which will be known as the Mint Building which will be retail and offices.
