DVD Clyde Steamer Memories Part 2 1949 to 1989

In home waters the Clyde passenger steamer was regarded with great affection by thousands of people who sailed ‘Doon the Watter’ to the beautiful Firth on the decks of their favourite steamer. As a boy I spent many holidays sailing on these magnificent steamers being one of the last generations to experience such pleasure. In Clyde Steamer Memories Part 2 that covers the period between 1949 and 1989 which sadly sees the sunset of this great era prior to the demise of the famous fleet of graceful ships which for generations of travellers, residents and holidaymakers were a central part of summer days on the Clyde. I hope that you the viewer will enjoy reliving these happy memories of historic scenes from this part of a history stretching over 150 years.
