The building of Edinburgh's tram line was a saga of delays and cost overruns so it is ironic that the public inquiry into the the bungled construction has also been long and expensive.
The statutory hearing, announced exactly six years ago, has now taken as many years as it took to build the troubled 8.7 mile (14km) line stretching from Edinburgh airport to the city centre.
It is just over two years since the probe's last public hearing and the price tag so far is £11m. Despite this the inquiry insists 'it will take as long as is necessary to get the answers required'.
But for some it is not clear what there is left to learn about the handling of the £1bn Edinburgh tram project.
