Scotland Again

ONCE again it is time for the biennial Scottish Motor Show. No V./fewer than 53 of the 236 stands at Kelvin Hall, Glasgow, carry commercial-vehicle exhibits, at least four new vehicles have been unveiled for the Show, and many new designs are on display in Scotland for the first time.
It is pleasing to be able to report thus, for there was a time when the Scottish Show was under attack in some quarters which doubted its value. However, two years ago, The Commercial Motor was able to state that the 1961 Show was "no moribund undertaking ". The unanswered question was whether the standard could be continued.
Now the answer is apparent. The 1963 Kelvin Hall Show promises to live up to the high standard set in 1961.
it seems to be inevitable that the Glasgow exhibition tends to be judged in the light of London, Brussels, Frankfurt, Turin, and the many other international commercial shows held throughout Europe. So it is to the credit of the Scottish Motor Trade Association that this essentially dealer show has become accepted on the international calendar. Witnesses to this fact are not only the new-vehicle announcements already mentioned, but the growing interest from the Continent; two manufacturers are making their first post-war appearance at Kelvin Hall. There is a second side to commercial vehicles—and that is the accessories and equipment section. Here there-are a number of exhibits that are new to Scotland, some having been announced only at the time of the London Motor Show. For many operators at any show, this is as interesting as are the vehicles themselves.
