715 is definitely a credit to the Heritage Team there. Has been a superb weekend for the Heritage Trams - only issue was a problem with Twin Set T2+272 - on a tour on Saturday whilst waiting to leave Pleasure Beach some severe arching was seen coming from the Pantograph (some of the sparks apparently also went inside the Motor Car), definitely something most people (mainly enthusiasts) hadn't seen previously. All instructed off both Motor and Trailer and not to touch the handrails in fear of earth contact until the Pantograph was off the wire.

All in all a superb weekend though - credit to all involved.

Good to see the B Fleet actually in Normal Service - given the work that has been done to enable them to access LRT platforms.

Not news but a nice little bit of nostalga from the early 70's.

The OMO's were the trams what saved Blackpool - arguably without, we wouldn't have a tramway today.
