First tram lines laid on Douglas prom

Four weeks until horse trams are due to run

The first new horse tram lines have been laid on Douglas promenade.

The old lines have been ripped out as part of the ongoing promenade regeneration scheme.

The new lines have gone down at the Strathallan end of the prom, just four weeks before the service is due to begin.

A number of construction workers and MHKs were present for the ceremony.

Chief Minister Howard Quayle was among those present.
