Edinburgh Trams continue to only be able to run from the Airport to West End as the former Debenhams store on Princes Street remains unsafe following a fire in early July. This image shows two of the Edinburgh Trams fleet at West End with 254 in an advert for Uniqlo departing and using the crossover as 274 (advertising the Royal Yacht Britannia) waits to access the platform.
