Trams & Recollections Sunderland in the 1950s

In this 85th volume, we travel back to the streets of Sunderland in the 1950s Sunderland's trams had an appeal to tram enthusiasts that was as great as any other British system. Possibly it was the fact that many were second-hand from other systems, or was it their (almost unique) pantographs in their later years? Like many others, David Clarke was fascinated by trams from an early age. This book is not an intended to be a definitive history of the trams or the system, this book is just sheer nostalgia. It is hoped that it will have appeal not only to tram enthusiasts but also to locals (and ex-locals) of Sunderland who remember the trams, and the streets they ran in, before the great Motor Car Age arrived.
