Scotland West

Aside from Glasgow, which has featured in two volumes of the Lost Tramways series, there were a number of other tramways in operation in the west of Scotland, These included those that served the towns of Ayr and Kilmarnock, the north and south banks of the Clyde-reaching places like Dumbarton, Balloch, Greenock and Gourock-Rothesay on Bute and the industrial heartland of Lanarkshire to the south-east of Glasgow itself, All prospered for a period, but changing fashions and the rise of the bus industry saw all disappear by the start of World War II,
