Wheels Around Arran, Bute and Cumbrae

These three islands formerly comprised the County of Bute and over the years have featured an interesting range of transport types and operators. With some of the Clyde Coast's most stunning scenery providing the backdrop, Robert Grieves has selected photographs showing puffers, paddle steamers and car ferries, along with buses, bicycles, lorries, cars, trams and even a miniature railway. Many well-known former transport operators are featured, and brief histories of their businesses have been included.
