They were the first to unveil reindeer names this year and now Edinburgh Trams have confirmed that just like on the West Midlands Metro there is a competition if you spot any of the reindeer running in service! All you have to do is spot any of the festive fleet, take a picture and send it to Edinburgh Trams in order to be entered into a festive prize draw.
The naming of trams after Santa’s reindeer is a little different in Edinburgh as different names are carried on each end of the tram but the original eight – Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner and Blitzen – can be found on the trams in the fleet (four different trams have been chosen to carry the names). Rudolph isn’t carried on any operational tram but as we featured a few days ago he can be seen on the mock-up at Edinburgh Airport.
