About The Author
Jim Blake
Jim Blake was born in December 1947 and brought up in Islington, North London. As did most young lads then, he soon developed an interest in railways, but also London’s trams, trolleybuses and buses since North London’s last two tram routes ran near his home, at the heart of London Transport’s trolleybus system. His interest developed into transport photography in 1961 and he took over 100,000 photos before retiring his cameras in 2015. He still lives in North London today.
