From the rattle of horse trams in 1877 to the final clang of the electric cars in 1956, Dundee’s rich tramway history charts the city’s growth and industrial might. The Streets of Dundee: Trams and Buses in the 1950s explores the transition from steam to electric trams, the competition from emerging bus services, and the vehicles that kept the city moving for decades.

In addition to his own text, Brian J Dickson has produced this book using Transport Treasury Archive images taken from the photographic collections of George Bett, A R Gault and W A C Smith. Featuring the landmark expansions to Broughty Ferry, and the post-war influx of London double-deckers, this narrative captures a bygone era of transport innovation and municipal ambition. Perfect for enthusiasts and historians alike.

78 black & white photographs. Hardback. 80 pages
