Electric vehicles ran on the streets of London from the early 1900s until 1962. This book tells the story of that period and describes the vehicles themselves and the effect they had on the development of the suburbs. It paints a picture of what life was like in the capital during this age, travelling and working on the trams and trolleybuses.
With many previously unpublished photographs and detail on the vehicles and routes themselves, there is even a chapter on the colourful pirate buses which competed against trams in the 1920s.
