Old Glasgow. Down the Clyde on the Queen Mary 2. 1963

In the early 1960’s my Dad went on a day trip down the River Clyde to Rothsey on the steame ship Queen Mary 2. Thankfully for us he took along his cine camera. After finding the films in a box in the loft I had them all transferred to disk and this is the first film I have edited from the footage. The original film had no sound track and I have attempted to create a realistic background soundtrack. If you dont like it you can watch with your speakers off. Points of interest include; The Clyde full of cargo ships Ships being built in the shipyards Class 303 blue trains The Queen Mary 2 (the boat we are travelling on) The Waverly Submarine travelling up the Clyde Glasgow trams being broken up in a scrap yard Hope you enjoy. #TSQueenMary #RiverClyde #QueenMary2 #Rothsey #RiverClyde #Glasgow #RenfrewFerry#DoonTheWater #ClydeSteamer #Govan #PortGlasgow #Partick #Dumbarton #Clydebank #GlasgowFair
