John Stanley Webb
John Stanley Webb was an English transport historian.
Born in Walsall, Staffordshire, Webb developed an interest in trains started as a child, as he traveled by rail to school. He wrote many books on British trams and tramway systems, and those in other countries, while working for his family's firm, James Webb and Sons, of Bloxwich, which he joined in 1935 and from which he retired as Managing Director in 1986.
Midland Metro named an AnsaldoBreda T-69 tram in his honour in a ceremony at Birmingham Snow Hill station on 17 July 2004.
