Traffic jam

Traffic chaos in the fog on Glasgow Bridge, early 20th century.

This photograph was taken in Jamaica Street looking south across Glasgow Bridge to Laurieston. There are at least a dozen trams lined up on the bridge, not to mention motor cars, horse drawn-wagons and pedestrians. Traffic jams are obviously nothing new in Glasgow!
