Edinburgh Trams to Commemorate Remembrance Day
Edinburgh Trams will honor Remembrance Sunday (9 November) and Armistice Day (11 November) to pay tribute to those who lost their lives in World War I, World War II, and more recent conflicts.
Free Travel for Armed Forces
To recognize the sacrifices of armed forces members, free tram travel will be offered on both days to veterans and serving personnel of the Army, Navy, and Air Force. Eligible riders can take advantage of this by showing their military ID or wearing their uniform.
Remembrance Activities
- Members of Poppy Scotland will be present at the Haymarket tram stop to sell poppies for those wishing to contribute.
- Poppies will be displayed in tram windows as a symbol of respect.
- When it is safe, tram services will pause at 11am on both days to observe a two-minute silence.
"Each year I am proud to show our support at Edinburgh Trams on both Remembrance Sunday and Armistice Day. As a former veteran myself, and a number of our colleagues being former service men and women, we are passionate about paying tribute to all of those who have paid the ultimate price throughout the years while serving our country." – Lea Harrison, Edinburgh Trams Managing Director
Summary: Edinburgh Trams honors Remembrance and Armistice Days by offering free travel to military personnel, hosting poppy sales, and observing silence to respect those who sacrificed in conflicts.
