Description

###

Edinburgh's trams have played a vital role in the city's history, transporting generations of commuters and visitors. The first horse-drawn trams appeared in 1871, and by the early 20th century, the city had one of the most extensive tramway networks in the world. However, the trams fell into decline after the Second World War, and the last tram ran in 1956.

###

In recent years, there has been a renewed interest in trams, and in 2014, the first new tram line opened in Edinburgh in over half a century. Edinburgh Trams Through Time tells the story of the city's trams through the decades, from the early horse-drawn trams to the modern-day low-floor trams.
