Publisher's Synopsis
Hugh Dougherty is that rare beast, a transport writer who understands his subject deeply, historically and technically. As a 15-year-old passenger, his quick wits saved a trolleybus from dewiring, but you'll need to read the book for the rest of that story! The book is full of trolleybus facts and figures and mode of operation for sure, but it's full of human interest and Glasgow personalities also. And Hugh, too. Although small in extent in some ways this is the ultimate Glasgow trolleybus book with their story being told in a very personal way by the author, who also took most of the photographs illustrated (except the tow he is in!).
