Letter: Send trams south

With the coalition government having renewed its commitment to supporting extensions to the Nottingham tram system, perhaps TIE should offer some of the surplus Edinburgh trams to Nottingham Express Transit on a long lease.

Given that the hugely popular Nottingham trams are frequently overcrowded, NET could probably make good use of the surplus Edinburgh ones even before their route extensions are ready.
