For those brought up in rural areas away from any railway the transition to modernity was well into the 20th century. Years ago an elderly friend of my mothers was widowed. They owned an A90 Atlantic car and I encouraged my father to pursue. We visited. The car was nbg; the owners were keen whitebaiters and th car had spent long hours parked on the beach. The thought of replacing the gigantic battery also deterred. But I was intrigued as the lady reminisced about riding a horse to school, the first car in the district etc All far removed from the exotic A90.
