EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by David Cruickshanks takes us back to a tumultuous moment in November 1996, when Mother Nature unleashed her fury upon the roads of Kirkintilloch. Here, we witness the aftermath of a devastating storm that left its mark on the transportation system. A once vibrant red number 87 bus now lies helplessly off the road, its sturdy frame no match for the ferocious winds that swept through. The image serves as a stark reminder of nature's power and unpredictability during this era. The weather conditions were undoubtedly treacherous, with heavy storms wreaking havoc on everything in their path. This particular bus was en route to Glasgow, carrying passengers who likely never anticipated such an unexpected turn of events. The damage and destruction inflicted upon this vehicle are evident; it stands as a testament to both human resilience and vulnerability in the face of natural forces. The wind-swept surroundings further emphasize the intensity of that fateful day. As we delve into this snapshot from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to an era where buses played an integral role in daily life and served as lifelines connecting communities. Beyond its historical significance within transport culture, this photograph encapsulates a powerful narrative about our relationship with nature's might and our ability to rebuild amidst adversity.
