Photos of long, articulated vehicles turning like this are always so pretty. There's something about them, but I don't know what it is, that makes them aesthetically pleasing, at least to me.

My wife interviewed for a job there. Was pretty excited, but the weather scared her away. Can't blame her, but I want to go back soon.

Our busses were super cheap anyway; am not sure what benefits the tram brings really except making it very easy to get to Murrayfield a few times a year. Come visit our town anyway though; bit grey, but we're friendly when you get to know us.

I live in a place where people oppose to the construction of tram lines, so all I can hear is their usual complaints and criticism.
