I dare say Salmond will be wanting to take full credit for this demonstration of how to get the job done in Scotland:
Quote:
Edinburgh's tram service has taken its first paying customers as the long-awaited route from the airport to the city centre opens to the public.
The first tram services set off at 05:00 BST from the Gyle Centre in the west of the city.
It follows six years of disruption and problems, including a bitter dispute between the council and its contractor.
The Edinburgh tram route cost £776m and covers 8.7 miles (14km) from the New Town to Edinburgh Airport.
In the decade since the first money was allocated to the project, the price has doubled, the network has halved and it has taken twice as long to build as originally planned.
