Description

Scottish Transport No. 75 is a publication of the Scottish Tramway Museum Society. In this issue we take a detailed look at Edinburgh’s cable trams, tracing the engineering and operational story of  the capital’s early transport system. Then we delve into Aberdeen’s two‑axle Streamliners, distinctive vehicles that left a lasting mark on the city and Glasgow’s subway rolling stock, charting its evolution from early designs to the present day. There is then an update on the Edinburgh Newhaven extension and a contemporary perspective in the feature on West Scotland’s electric buses. This edition then closes with a piece on Edinburgh cable tram 226 and a look at Aberdeen anniversaries, celebrating milestones in the city’s transport history.
