Its another trip out to the Gyle Centre on Edinburgh Trams for this edition of “Lockdown Walks”.
At the Gyle Centre you will find a section of grassed track, installed so as to make the environment that the trams run through a bit more pleasant and attraction – its certainly better than just plain old ballast that’s for sure. A fairly recent addition to tramways in the UK, there is another high-profile section like this on the West Midlands Metro to the city side of the St Chads stop.
This picture shows 267 leaving the Gyle Centre tram stop through the neatly manicured grass track on its way to York Place. (Photograph by John Hampton)
