South Shields Transport

A history of South Shields transport

---

Roughly moving around the town along the old ‘figure of eight’ electric tram route that opened in 1906, this book rediscovers the lost world of the horse-drawn and electric trams through to trolleybuses and motorbuses operated by South Shields Corporation Transport. The Corporation boasted that there was no part of the town that was more than a quarter of an hour’s walk away from this route.
