«Aquellos tranvías de Madrid» is the historical essay by Diego Gutiérrez, published by Ediciones La Libreria in paperback (248 pages, in Spanish).
This work reviews the history of the trams that ran through Madrid between 1870 and 1971, from mule-drawn and steam-powered ones to electric ones. The narrative interweaves the evolution of urban transport with the transformation of the city, from the Madrid of the Castro Ensanche to the Greater Madrid of the sixties, and with the country's different political periods, such as the Restoration, the Second Republic, the Civil War and Francoism.
First edition in the Historias de Madrid collection, with 100 illustrations and bibliographic references. The author, Diego Gutiérrez, was born at the Bombilla station, where his father was station master.
