Description
Issue No. 78 of Scottish Transport offers another varied selection from across Scotland’s transport heritage. The issue opens with an introductory piece, In the Beginning, before turning to Dundee with Reflections of Dundee Trams, alongside a nostalgic look back in It Was 70 Years Ago. Bus enthusiasts will appreciate the profile of Alexander, the Falkirk bus builder, while The Modigliani Affair promises an intriguing story of its own. Those with a taste for something different can enjoy A Summer with the Straiton Pig, and the more technically minded are served by an article on Maximum Traction Bogies. Railway followers will find plenty of interest in A Visit to the Scottish Big Four, and the issue also explores the early days of road transport with Nineteenth Century Steam Buses in Glasgow and Edinburgh. Completing the line-up are a look at six Paisley & District trams of 1911 and a closer examination of Edinburgh Cable Car 226.
