| Railcoach 680 on its first day of operation in Heritage Tour service, heading south at North Pier |
The second day of the August Bank Holiday weekend saw the gold heritage timetable in use, with Bolton 66, Twin Set 272+T2, Boat 600, Centenary 642, Railcoach 680 and Balloons 701 & 715 operating. Railcoach 680 was making its debut in Heritage Tour service at Blackpool, having only arrived on loan from the Heaton Park Tramway just over a week ago on 21st August. Centenary 642 was an extra untimetabled heritage car, in use due to spare crew being available. Fat door Balloon 711 was in use on specials again, and Boat 230 had to substitute for Boat 600 during the day, the latter was suffering from problems with its trolley pole.
