Old Photograph Tram Bridgend Perth Scotland

Old photograph of a Tram, shops, people and buildings in Bridgend by the old bridge over the River Tay in Perth, Perthshire, Scotland. Perth Corporation Tramways operated an electric tramway service in Perth, Scotland between 1903 and 1929. In October 1903 the horse tramways of the Perth and District Tramways were taken over by Perth Corporation. An initial experiment with a petrol tram was unsuccessful and electric service began on 31 October 1905. The main route was from Scone to Cherrybank. There were branches to Craigie and to Dunkeld Road. The depot was beyond the terminus at Scone.
