Lothian Road

This view looks down Lothian Road towards Princes Street on a winters day in February 1955. 

It shows the improved lights and signs on tram loading islands that were installed around 1950.  Previously there had low dingy box-shaped lamps.  (This change in lighting be helpful in dating other photos of central Edinburgh.)

Thank you to Douglas Beat, Tasmania, for this observation.
