Captain_Scarlet Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 Fantastic links, thanks craigmason. Amazing to see a city centre with cars and buses not having much of an issue about. Haymarket being two way... Looking at the vids, town was so much more organised and free flowing than it is now. Thanks planners. Great tram ride view and steam trains Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
