No scepticism here

Problem sorted. Just like that. Everything in the garden is lovely. The Evening News states:
THE Capital's trams vision today took a huge step forward as its backers unveiled a business plan which showed the scheme was viable and would deliver hundreds of millions of pounds worth of benefits.
The business plan revealed there is enough money in place to build the main Leith to Edinburgh Airport line, and there may be enough left over to complete a spur route to the Granton Waterfront development.

Well, it's a business plan, see. It has lots of numbers, so it must be right. And just because it has been prepared by transport consultants and paid for by the tram promoters does not mean that they would have made ambitious assumptions, does it?
