In what is only the second new advert of 2022 to be stuck onto an Edinburgh tram, 272<\/strong> has returned to a previous sponsor in receiving vinyls for this year\u2019s Royal Highland Show. In the usual format (full height on sections 3 and 5, above windows on the other sections) this advert urges you to \u201cget back into the saddle\u201d as well as being \u201c200 years in the making\u201d.<\/p>\n

The Royal Highland Show is no stranger to adverts on Edinburgh Trams with 261<\/strong> carrying adverts for the Royal Highland Show Trampede in 2017, 276<\/strong> in 2018 and 272<\/strong> in 2019.<\/p>\n

Since 272<\/strong> lost its previous Royal Highland Show adverts in July 2019 it has advertised Audi (July 2019-July 2020) and John Lewis (October 2020-May 2022). This is now its fifth different advert since receiving its first in August 2017.<\/p>\n
