InTramCities with Ian Stewart


Ian Stewart (1931-1992) lived near the centre of Aberdeen with trams passing the front window of the tenement flat on Willowbank Road in which he grew up. As a child he loved the trams, but it was not until the 1970s that his interest was rekindled once his son Gordon, whose only experience was to have been on a Sheffield tram as a small baby, discovered trams on a family holiday. With his son developing a strong interest in German tramways in particular, Ian, who travelled frequently on business, usually made sure he carried a camera with him to take tram photographs in any free time he was able to make. Photographs taken in West Germany in the 1970s are included in a separate special report. Here are some other photos taken on those business trips.
