I think perhaps there is a bug with the trams bridges. When placing a tram bridge (tram construction menu, drag bridge, select bridge), it turns out to be a road bridge. I can place tram tracks on the end, which makes it a hybrid bridge, but cannot convince it to be a trams only bridge.
I was using custom bridge heads at the time. I can provide additional information (screens, configs, save) if this is not enough. (Only reason they aren't going up with this post is that I don't have all that much time on the compy tonight).
I do believe that is how Steven wants it to be at the moment.
However, it would make more sense for it to just be trams to start with and then allow conversion...
Although conversion code would needed and code to workout graphics and such.
Yes, using custombridgeheads I removed the road (partially; it was no longer touching the bridge roadway, but there was a corner of road on the end tile) and placed tram tracks. I guess it just seems silly to me not to be able to build pure tram bridges from the trams construction menu. Screens etc. later.
The conversion code is already there: build a road bridge, add tram tracks, and remove the road, and it'll be a tram bridge. Reverse the procedure, and it'll become a road bridge again.
I feel silly. Here I was, thinking I was fully updated, when I wasn't. Sorry to have caused trouble like this: the "bug" I found was my error via lack of updates. Apologies and thanks.
Very nice, this should solve the problem with trams, which are positioned for right-traffic are not displayed properly on left-traffic.
But railroad tracks with ties would look better I think.

While RK's graphics are nice, I quite like the original tram graphics.

Well, in Switzerland, we have Trams on meter gauge and on normal gauge. but to be honest, Pikka's track look a bit too big. I think RK's try is promising.
