Passengers going from Leith to Edinburgh had to change trams (from electric to cable-drawn) at Pilrig on Leith Walk at the boundary between Leith and Edinburgh. [2] This confused exchange of passengers was known locally as "the Pilrig muddle", and lasted until the electrification of the Edinburgh Corporation Tramways system.
On 1 January 1897 it took over the Edinburgh Northern Tramways cable operated lines. The company also undertook a conversion programme replacing many horse drawn services with cable operated lines. [2] The choice of cable traction was driven by the gradients on many streets in Edinburgh. The cable lines included: Princes St and Leith Walk to Pilrig

Electric trams first ran on systems in neighbouring Musselburgh (1904) and Leith (1905), meeting the Edinburgh cable-trams at Joppa and Pilrig respectively.
