Arguably the last of the ‘traditional’ tramways to operate in Britain, Dundee’s fleet of some 56 trams were to survive through until the mid-1950s when – despite considerable opposition – this popular form of transport was replaced by bus. The final Dundee trams operated in October 1956.
Locations featured include: High Street, Nethergate, Murraygate, Albert Square, Hilltown, Maryfield, Blackness, Lochee, Ninewells, Downfield.
The Lost Tramways of Scotland series documents the tram networks which were at the heart of many of Britain’s growing towns and cities from the mid-19th century to the mid-20th century. An informative, accessible and portable resource for the tram enthusiast as well as the general reader, and a superb souvenir or gift for visitors past and present.
