A TRAFFIC cone intended as a symbol of friendship between Glasgow and Massachusetts has been flown across the Atlantic in a first-class seat.

During the Tartan Army’s stay in Boston during the World Cup, Scotland fans often adorned the city’s statues with orange traffic cones – imitating the Glasgow tradition for the Duke of Wellington’s statue.
