The Gypsy Queen?

[Dennis]

Hi:)

My mom seems to recall that there was a small passenger ship that would be hauled up the Clyde by Clydesdales; did West Nile St. play a part in this, as she says she remembers seeing the sparks from the horses shoes.

Couldn't find any pics to back-up her story.

Hi Dennis,

I found a reference to the Gypsy Queen and horses on the canal here.

West Nile Street isn't on the river but there used to be horse drawn trams onthat route.

Kind regards,
