In this latest \u201cLockdown Walk\u201d we are once again in Edinburgh for a view of one of the trams at rest.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The historic nature of Edinburgh City Centre always comes through in photos of trams running in the Scottish capital with many historic buildings still in situ allowing images of the ultra-modern and the old side-by-side with neither really looking out of place. And so it is for this latest photo.<\/p>\n

This is 271 at York Place \u2013 the current terminus of the line, but from 2023 it won\u2019t even be a tramstop! \u2013 with St Paul\u2019s and St George\u2019s Episcopal Church in the background. The single front door can be seen open here but at the time of this photo this was for the use of tram crew only with all passengers having to board at the double doors along the rest of the length of the tram.
