"In
the years
between
1920 and
1950 a
number of
classic
tramcar
designs
emerged -
such as
the
Blackpool
'Standards',
the London
'Felthams',
The
Liverpool
'Baby
Grands',
and the
Glasgow
'Cunarders'
- which
seemed to
offer the
tramcar a
long-term
future in
Britain.
Peter
Waller
relates
the
history of
these
important
designs,
covering
more than
a dozen
different
types."
