British Trolleybuses - Glasgow
Tay Crescent, Riddrie. This was an intermediate terminus on the long route 106 from Millerston (in the north-east of the city) to Bellahouston in the south-west (south of the Clyde). Glasgow started its conversion of tramways to trolleybuses immediately after the second world war, but only a handful of routes were completed before the decision was made to convert the rest of the system with diesel buses. The trolleybuses outlasted the trams by less than five years. Route 106 was replaced by bus route 38.
This housing estate with its two storey houses marks an intermediate stage between the working class traditional tenements and the high-rise which was already making an impact on the city landscape by the mid-60s.

M8 at Junction 12
Overhead sign gantry and the slip road from the M8 to the A80 at junction 12.
Note the typical “Glasgow-type” sign gantry with the following distinctive elements:
• Near and offside support legs (basically 2 rectangular hollow sections with base plates to allow connections to the foundations)
• A Main Frame (made up of rectangular hollow sections) - Over clad on the front and rear.
• A Sub Frame (made up of smaller hollow sections and welded to main frame).
• A Sign Face - acrylic sheets hung from the front of the sub frame over its full height.
• Internal Electrics - sign lighting provided through the use of several dozen fluorescent battens.
Gantries of this type were first erected as part of the construction of the Kingston Bridge and its approach roads in 1970 and they are now a familiar sight on the network around Glasgow.
