A pal of lent me a copy of the half hour, Trans-Clyde promotional video, filmed between 1977 & 1980. I've now got round to copying it. Sadly it's a very old original tape, and the picture is pretty rough, & washed out. I've got my eye open for a better copy.
For those of you with the 'Glasgow Underground' DVD, that used some scenes from this tape.
A few stills (sorry for the fuzziness, a combination of duff video, & duff capture software
).
Lewis's at Christmas, ah the memories.
Christmas pipers, & Santa (being arrested ?
)
Modernisation on the Underground, and reconstruction of the Argyle Line.
The first two are Partick, under construction, it looks very similar at the moment
Putting up those awful orange tiles.
Trans-Clyde day (I think)
The Queen, on the escalator at St Enoch. She opened the modernised Underground, and Argyle Line.
Prince Philip, probably wishing he was elsewhere.
All done.
Partick, when you could actually see through the clear plastic.
