Infrastructure
In an interview with Bruntie the Blacksmith we hear all about the changes that the railways are bringing to the people of Scotland. The song from V2, Faster, Faster, Faster reinforces the speed and competiveness of the building work of the rail network. Our second sketch, The Go to Bridge Men recounts the tragic story of the Tay bridge disaster. Finally in Memories of the Men that Built we use archive and documented detail to pay homage to those Victorians that worked in Scotland鈥檚 shipbuilding and locomotive yards.
